Oblique sliding ulna osteotomy to treat paediatric neglected monteggia fracture dislocation.
J Orthop Surg (Hong Kong)
September 2024
Article Synopsis
- The study explores a surgical technique called oblique sliding ulna osteotomy, used to correct ulna deformities in patients with chronic radial head dislocation resulting from ignored Monteggia fractures.
- Four patients aged 3-12, with trauma durations ranging from 4 weeks to 3 years, underwent the procedure, achieving successful outcomes without nerve injury and maintaining good range of motion.
- The results suggest that this surgical method effectively corrects deformities and lengthens the ulna without needing bone grafts, leading to stable repair of the neglected fractures.
The choice of treatment for unstable and severely displaced slipped capital femoral epiphysis (SCFE) is controversial. This meta-analysis was conducted to determine the prevalence of femoral head avascular necrosis (AVN) following various treatments for unstable SCFE. Various databases were searched to identify articles published until 4 February 2022.

Its success depends on the ability to preserve blood supply during the surgery. We retrospectively reviewed eight cases of neglected fracture of LHC in children treated with open reduction with selected multiple 'V' lengthening of common extensor muscle and internal fixation.
