There are a variety of ways to treat chronic elbow dislocations, including repeat closed reduction and immobilization, transarticular pinning, temporary bridge plating, hinged or rigid external fixation, and internal fixator application. Although each have distinct advantages and disadvantages, avoiding recurrent instability is critical. The internal-fixator is a relatively new option to maintain a stable, concentric reduction and facilitate early range of motion. This article and accompanying video describe the surgical technique of using an internal joint stabilizer for treatment of a chronically unstable ulnohumeral joint.
治疗慢性肘关节脱位有多种方法，包括反复闭合复位和固定、经关节克氏针固定、临时桥接钢板固定、铰链或刚性外固定架和内置固定器应用。尽管每种方法都有其独特的优缺点，但避免反复不稳定是至关重要的。内置固定器是一种相对较新的选择，可以保持稳定、同心复位并促进早期活动范围。本文和配套视频介绍了使用关节内置稳定器治疗慢性不稳定尺肱关节的手术技术。
