[The development of our therapeutic concept in the treatment of ulnar epicondyle fractures].
50 patients with epicondylus ulnaris fractures are analysed. 4 types of fracture are recognised. The results of therapy are often described in literature much more optimistically than in reality. The first critical examination and the selection of therapy, mostly a surgical intervention, had a great influence on mobility of the elbow joint, on strength and subjective perception. The results could only be assessed after three years. Complications of concomitant injuries - nerve lesion and ligament/capsule structures - were discussed with regard to surgical approach.
