Abstract:
We report five adult patients with complex Monteggia-equivalent fractures who were surgically treated, all of whom had significant complications. All ulnar fractures and three radial fractures developed nonunion. Three patients required more than two procedures to achieve bony union, and one required a total elbow arthroplasty.
