Pediatric Monteggia Fracture Outcome Assessment - Preliminary Report

CONCLUSIONS: 1. Our experience shows that closed reduction together with immobilization in a cast is usually a sufficient treatment in Monteggia fractures. 2. However, the dislocated radial head should be properly reduced in all patients. 3. Correct diagnosis and treatment followed by appropriate rehabilitation result in full recovery and no mobility limitations in children and teenagers.PMID:35550359 | DOI:10.5604/01.3001.0015.8265
