A biomechanical study comparing the mean load to failure of two different osteosynthesis techniques for step-cut olecranon osteotomy

A biomechanical study comparing the mean load to failure of two different osteosynthesis techniques for step-cut olecranon osteotomy

Background: Olecranon osteotomies are frequently used to expose distal humeral intraarticular fractures. The step-cut olecranon osteotomy (SCOOT) is an augmented version of the oblique olecranon osteotomy, which has recently been evaluated biomechanically with tension band wiring (TBW) fixation. How...
