Management of Comminuted Olecranon Fractures With Precut K-Wires and Tension Band Wiring

Abstract

Various methods are used to treat comminuted fractures of the olecranon. The preferred method of management of fractures of the olecranon is tension band wiring over K-wires. Often, it becomes difficult to fix small articular fragments with the 2 K-wires used for tension band wiring. Since 2005, we have used the missing K-wire technique to fix the small articular fragments.
