Surgical Importance of Radiographically Aided Morphometry of the Proximal Ulna

Abstract: Huseyin ErdemERDEM, H. Surgical importance of radiographically aided morphometry of the proximal ulna. Int. J. Morphol., 38(2):299-304, 2020. SUMMARY:This study was conducted to define the proximal ulnar morphometry with respect to dorsal and intramedullary implant design. Eighty two dry Anatolian ulnae were evaluated by both the traditional and digital morphometric analysis methods. Also the medullary cavities and cortical bone thicknesses were measured from radiographic images. The mean value of ulnar length… Show more

“…In severe cases, it also has a certain impact on the functional exercise of the patients' elbows. The cable-pin system has the following advantages in the treatment of olecranon fracture [ 26 ]: (1) the binding device equipped with the cable-pin system can prevent the slippage and failure of the cable-pin system, which is beneficial to healing of the ulnar olecranon fracture with less subcutaneous irritation symptoms and fewer complications, such as wire loosening, fracture, and pintail slippage, and reduce the probability of secondary revision surgery. (2) The screw tail of the cable-pin system can be embedded in the bone cortex, which minimizes the pressure on the skin and soft tissue behind the olecranon of the elbow joint, and (3) the screw is connected with the titanium cable in the cable-pin system, which eliminates the need for reserved bending of the tail of the Kirschner needle during operation, and the operation is simple and firm.…”

“…Based on the International Organization for Standardization (ISO) 5835:1991 about the ideal screw design is utilizing a 3.5 mm thread diameter with a core diameter of 2.4 mm, a screw head diameter of 6 mm, and a pitch width of 1.25 mm. Another one explains that the anteroposterior diameter of the ulna bone is in the range of 8.5-18.7 mm, with an average of 14.1 mm [15]. By this literature, the screw was designed with a length of 14.8 mm, which measured from the screw neck to the tip, so the overall size of the screw from head to the tip is 18.6 mm.…”
