Treatment strategy and long-term functional outcome of traumatic elbow dislocation in childhood: A single centre study

Abstract: PurposeTraumatic elbow dislocation (TED) is the most common injury of large joints in children. There is an ongoing debate on the optimal treatment for TED.

“…Active elbow ranges of motion (ROM) in flexion/extension and pronosupination were recorded with goniometer. Mayo Elbow Performance Score (MEPS) 14 and Quick-Disabilities Of The Arm, Shoulder And Hand (DASH) 15 scores were reported. Standard antero-posterior and profile radiographs of the elbow and forearm were performed for all patients.…”

“…The management of bilateral elbow dislocation is similar to the treatment of unilateral elbow dislocation. The operative treatment seems to offer no statistically different outcomes in pediatric patients than nonoperative treatment in Mayo Elbow Performance score (MEPS), Quick Disabilities of the Arm, Shoulder and Hand (QuickDASH) Sport and Music Module scores [ 10 ]. A short duration of immobilization is usually recommended to achieve the best results.…”
