Repair of Bado II Monteggia Fracture: Case Presentation and Surgical Technique.
Journal of Orthopaedic Trauma 2019 August
INTRODUCTION: Monteggia fractures are rare, although complex elbow injuries. Bado II Monteggia fractures are characterized by posterior dislocation of the radial head and concurrent fracture of the proximal or middle third of the ulna. This video demonstrates the open reduction and internal fixation of a complex Bado II Monteggia fracture dislocation.
METHODS: The patient is a 65-year-old woman with a Bado II Monteggia fracture after a low-energy fall from standing height. Given the extent of comminution and the instability of the elbow, the patient was indicated for surgical fixation.
RESULTS: This video demonstrates a locking plate technique for repair of a comminuted fracture of the proximal ulna. Anatomical reduction of ulnohumeral and radiocapitellar joints and stable fixation with bone grafting of the fracture are achieved with a medial 2.0/2.4-mm plate and a dorsal precontoured variable-angle locking plate. Demonstration of radial head arthroplasty is provided as an alternative for utilization in cases with a radial head fracture.
CONCLUSIONS: Anatomical reduction and fixation of complex Monteggia fracture dislocations can be achieved with adherence to standard aspects of bony reconstruction. In this video we present the case of a Bado II Monteggia fracture surgically repaired with a locking plate construct.
