Treatment of Traumatic Posterior Dislocation of the Sternoclavicular Joint: A Case Report: Dong Hee Kim, Do Hoon Kim, Seok Kwon Kang, Eui Chul Lee; J Korean Fract Soc 2013;26(1):56-59. Published online January 31, 2013; DOI: https://doi.org/10.12671/jkfs.2013.26.1.56

Compared with acromioclavicular dislocation, dislocation of the clavicle at its sternal end is uncommon and accounts for 3% of all injuries to the shoulder girdle. Furthermore, the posterior dislocation of the sternoclavicular joint is relatively a rare injury compared to the other types of sternoclavicular dislocation. We report this case since we have experience with similar cases of traumatic posterior dislocation at the sternoclavicular joint, which were successfully treated with x-ray guided reduction.

Reconstruction of the coronoid process using a graft from the olecranon of the same side for chronic posterior dislocation of the elbow: Jin Ho Kim, Seung Taek Song, Young Jin Sohn; J Korean Soc Fract 2002;15(3):410-413. Published online July 31, 2002; DOI: https://doi.org/10.12671/jksf.2002.15.3.410

Abstract PDF: It is reported when posterior dislocation of the elbow with the fracture of the coronoid process is occurred, if they can 't achieve the reduction of coronoid process, the patient would have the elbow instability. That is required to open reduction of coronoid process. Limitation of the elbow motion and persistent posterior dislocation of the elbow result from failure of reduction of coronoid process in acute injury. That patients have been treated by distraction arthroplasty, total elbow replacement, arthrodesis, and coronoid process reconstruction. We experienced one case that had a excellent result from reconstruction of the coronoid process using a graft from the olecranon of same side in 28 years old man.

Reconstruction of Medial Collateral Ligament in Old Posterior Dislocation of the Elbow: Sang Soo Lee, Ho Yeun Hwang, Dong Hee Lee, Il Hyun Nam, Sang Un Lee; J Korean Soc Fract 2000;13(3):576-583. Published online July 31, 2000; DOI: https://doi.org/10.12671/jksf.2000.13.3.576

Abstract PDF: PURPOSE
To evaluate and analyse the operative results of reconstruction of medial collateral ligament(MCL) in old posterior dislocation of the elbow.
MATERIALS AND METHODS
Nine patients (from 1989 to 1999) with old posterior dislocation of the elbow treated by operation were reviewed. We analysed the pattern of dislocation, associated injury, method of operation, complication and functional results. All patients were treated with open reduction. Reconstruction of MCL was undertaken in three patients of nine.
RESULTS
All nine patients who had underwent open reduction were improved in the flexion-extension motion of elbow. Three patients of nine underwent reconstructive surgery of MCL were much improved in the flexion-extension motion. But there is no differences in improving the pronation-supination motion between of them(P>0.05, ttest).
CONCLUSION
Precise understanding of MCL anatomy and appropriate intraoperative technique are mandatory. We achieved much more range of motion in the cases of reconstruction and early motion rather than those of immobilization for 3 weeks with K-wire. We believe reconstruction of MCL is a useful addition to treatment options for old elbow dislocation of elbow.

Swanson Prosthesis Replacement of the Comminuted Radial Head Fracture Associated with Posterior Dislocation of the Elbow: 3 Cases Experienced: Soo Kyoon Rah, Jin Il Kim, Chi Soo Sohn, Yon Il KIm, Chang Uk Choi; J Korean Soc Fract 1998;11(1):47-55. Published online January 31, 1998; DOI: https://doi.org/10.12671/jksf.1998.11.1.47

Abstract PDF: Radial head resection is the accepted treatment of comminuted radial head fractures in adults, but the results are not always satisfactory. a number of well-known problems can ensue. These include chronic elbow and wrist pain, limited of motion, cubitus valgus, proximal radial migration, and new bone formation at the site of excision. Prosthetic replacement of radial head after excision offers theoretical advantages in the prevention of these problems. We are reporting three cases of patients, who had treated Swanson silastic prosthesis after comminuted radial head fracture associated posterior dislocation of the elbow.

Surgical Treatment of the Posterior wall Fracture of Acetabulum with Posterior Hip Dislocation: Eu Seup Chung, Kyung Soo Choi, Min Kee Kim, Yong Il Son; J Korean Soc Fract 1996;9(3):525-532. Published online July 31, 1996; DOI: https://doi.org/10.12671/jksf.1996.9.3.525

Abstract PDF

The Posterior wall and column fracture of the acetabulum is clinically important because of its range of motion and weight bearing portion, and in majority cases, they accompany with posterior dislocation of the hip. When the fractures were not treateci well, they may give rise to disabling symptoms such as traumatic arthritis and avascular necrosis of the femoral head. So, accurate reduction is more important than other fractures. The purpose of this study is to know the clinical results and complications when reduced surgically the posterior wall fractures of acetabulum with posterior hip dislocation. Sixteen cases of posterior wall fracture of acetabulum with posterior hip dislocation were treated surgically in the presbyterian medical center during the period 1981 to 1995. The short summary of observations were following as; 1. According to Letoumels classification, simple posterior wall fracture was 10 cases, comminuted posterior wall fracture in 4 cases, and posterior wall and column in 2 cases, and relatively good clinical result was seen at the simple posterior wall fracture. 2. The complications were traumatic osteoarthritis in 4 cases(25%), and heterotopic ossification in 2 cases(12.5%). 3. The clinical result above Good was 14 cases(88%), the roentgenographic result above Good was 11 cases(69%), and they were correlations in each others(P<0.05).

A Clinical Experience of the Posterior Fractare Dislocation of the Hip Joint: Dong Bae Shin, Young Kyu Lee, Jang Yeob Ahn, Kyung Ho Jin, Young Kil Joo; J Korean Soc Fract 1994;7(2):628-633. Published online November 30, 1994; DOI: https://doi.org/10.12671/jksf.1994.7.2.628

Abstract PDF: After classification of posterior hip dislocation by Thompson and Epstein, some treatment guide lines became proposed upon each types. However the most importance in treatment of posterior hip dislocation is prevention of 2 major complications, avascular necrosis of femoral head and post-traumatic arthritis. Authors experienced 16 cases of posterior htp dislocalion from Jan, 1988 to Dec. 1992. We analysed results of 16 cases which were available for minimum 1 year follow-up(Type I : 4 cases, Type II : 5 cases, Type IV cases, Type V : 3 cases). The summary of our clinical experience were as follows; 1. Reverse Stimson method was very useful method in reduction of posterior dislocated hip. 2. Reasons for surgery were unconcentric reduction with intraarticular fragment, large acetabular fragment with instability and joint incongruity. 3. The incidence of osteoarthritis was high(56%) and there was no differences in its prevalance and severity according to each type of Epstein classification.
