A series of 40 cases of fractures of the olecranon in children under the age of 11 years is presented. These fractures are commonest at 5 years of age and are almost twice as common in boys as in girls. The fracture is usually undisplaced and incomplete; fractures in the long axis of the ulna (the 'longitudinal split' fracture) are not uncommon in children. Associated injury of the proximal end of the radius is recognized. Only 2 cases were sufficiently displaced to require open reduction. Although immobilization in plaster with the elbow at 90 degree for a month is usually recommended, the results indicate that in the usual undisplaced and incomplete fracture, a period of 3 weeks in a sling may be all the treatment necessary.
本文报告了40例11岁以下儿童尺骨鹰嘴骨折的病例。这些骨折在5岁时最为常见，男孩的发病率几乎是女孩的两倍。骨折通常无移位且不完全；尺骨长轴骨折（“纵向裂开”骨折）在儿童中并不少见。已认识到桡骨近端的合并损伤。只有2例移位足够明显，需要切开复位。虽然通常建议将肘部固定在90度的石膏中一个月，但结果表明，对于通常无移位且不完全的骨折，用吊带固定3周可能就是全部必要的治疗。
