title: [Open reduction of the elbow. Apropos of 29 neglected dislocations].
abstract: The authors describe results and technical difficulties faced in a series of 29 elbow dislocations using the open technic, then observed over a period between 5 years and 4 months. Results obtained are satisfactory, taking into consideration the primary stiffness. Results on stability are better than those obtained by resection of the lower part of the humerus. Dislocations by the open technic have to be envisaged first in neglected luxations. Indications are limited to patients crippled and limited to non-functional position.
