| Core Tip |
Treatment algorithms assert that acute length-stable Monteggia fractures are treated with an intramedullary device, while acute length-unstable fractures are treated with plates. Intramedullary devices have the advantage of smaller skin incisions, less soft tissue disruption, shorter operative times and easier device removal. Plates allow more anatomical restoration of the ulnar fracture and the radial bow, although they can cause delayed union due to blood circulation disruption around the fracture. Intramedullary wires can be used for the treatment of acute length-unstable Monteggia fractures instead of plates as these are associated with excellent results and fewer complications. |
