One hundred and twenty one cases of Monteggia fractures (68) and Monteggia fracture equivalent variant transolecranon fracture dislocations (53) in adults were reviewed to determine the frequency of Bado types and the occurrences of irreducible radial head dislocations. The distribution of Monteggia fractures was 53 Bado type I, two Bado type II, eight Bado type III, and five Bado type IV. Nine (13%) irreducible radial head dislocations were encountered (8 in Bado type I fractures and one in Bado type IV), including an unreported occurrence of biceps tendon interposition. The distribution in the Monteggia variants was 35 Bado type I, 14 Bado type II, one Bado type III, and two Bado type IV, without any irreducible radial heads. The present study demonstrates a greater preponderance of Bado type I than any other type among adult Monteggia fractures.

Introduction: In 1814, Giovanni Battista Monteggia first described the fracture pattern which was further characterized by Luis Bado in 1967. Bado also coined the term Monteggia equivalent which includes a spectrum of complex fracture patterns and dislocations of the proximal ulna and radius. Monteggia equivalent lesions in adults are rare with different injury mechanisms compared to children, and thus having different management procedures.

Purpose: The retrospective study reviewed the clinical and radiological outcomes of patients treated with radiocapitellar joint plasty.
Methods: 10 children with missed Monteggia fracture (MMF) were reviewed. The average time from injury to operation was 20 months.

is widely recognized as an opportunistic hospital and community pathogen. It is one of the priority microorganisms included in the ESKAPE group, and its antibiotic resistance related to extended-spectrum β-lactamases (ESBL) is a global public health concern. The multi-drug resistance (MDR) phenotype, in combination with pathogenicity factors, could enhance the ability of this pathogen to cause clinical infections.
