Abstract

Coronoid fractures are rare fractures of the elbow joint that can cause acute or chronic posteromedial rotatory instability. During clinical diagnosis, the examiner focuses primarily on assessing joint stability. Because of their size, coronoid fractures can be easily missed on conventional radiography, so further imaging (CT, MRI) is recommended when suspicion is present. In the absence of joint incongruity and fracture displacement, conservative treatment can be an option-especially in patients with low functional demands. Surgical therapy focuses on bony restoration and ligament repair/reconstruction.
