  • Title: Fractures of the olecranon and radial neck in children.
    Author: Dormans JP, Rang M.
    Journal: Orthop Clin North Am; 1990 Apr; 21(2):257-68. PubMed ID: 2326052.
    Abstract:
    Over one half of radial neck fractures are associated with other injuries about the elbow. Most radial neck fractures can be treated with closed reduction or with percutaneous probing, even if the other associated injuries require open reduction. The results are good, although radiologic imperfections may be seen after healing. In the older child, olecranon fractures that have significant displacement usually require open reduction with internal fixation.
