Elbow Fractures in Adult

Elbow fractures in adult are categorized into: distal humerus fractures (extra-articular and intra-articular fractures), olecranon fractures, radial head fractures, and coronoid process fractures. These lesions may be associated together to form more complex fracture patterns. CT scan with 2-D and 3-D reconstruction is an indispensable complementary examination for precise diagnosis and surgical planning. Surgical treatment is very commonly indicated.
