“…Ramirez et al. 24 conducted a biomechanics experiment and obtained findings consistent with those of Alolabi et al. 23 However, they made certain modifications, such as complete excision of the coronoid process and use of an identically sized olecranon osteotomy for reconstruction.…”

As a pivotal part of the elbow joint structure, the coronoid process of the ulna plays a vital role in maintaining elbow joint stability. Loss of coronoid process height causes instability of the elbow joint depending on the fracture characteristics and size. The diagnosis and treatment of coronoid process fractures has gained widespread attention from orthopedic surgeons. Nevertheless, few reports have described reconstruction of coronoid process fractures and defects that affect elbow joint stability. Treatment of elbow joint instability induced by coronoid process defects is challenging because most cases are complicated by other elbow joint injuries. Moreover, the clinical efficacy remains unclear. The present narrative review was performed to examine the research progress on reconstruction of the coronoid process. The findings of this review provide evidence for clinical repair and reconstruction of coronoid process defects and contribute to the published literature on this topic.

“…One of the most serious injuries that occur in the osteoarticular system are spine injuries. In most cases, such injuries are located in a cervical vertebra or at a joint between a thoracic vertebra and a lumbar vertebra [9,10]. Such injuries de-pend mostly on the injury strength and impacted place.…”

Fractures of old age are fractures occurring in persons with low resistance of osseous tissue due to diseases such as osteoporosis. The most common osteoporotic fractures are fractures of the spine, proximal femur, distal radius as well as some diaphyseal fractures seen by orthopaedic surgeons. The research on the basis of domestic and foreign literature and the results of their observations are presented as well as the principles of epidemiology for the identification and treatment of age-related fractures. Almost half of falls in old age lead to injuries which are often the cause of hospitalization. Falls are a major cause of disability and the fifth most frequent cause of death in people over 75 years. Treatment of age-related fractures should ensure the possibility of prompt return of the patient to independent movement and performing daily activities.
