In conclusion, variations in the proximal ulna have to be considered when anatomically contoured dorsal plates are applied. Knowledge of the 3D morphologic anatomy of the proximal ulna would provide important information on fracture reductions, and the design of a precontoured dorsal plate or a prosthetic ulnar stem.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
