Isolated type IIIA fracture of the coronoid process of ulna. A case report and brief review of literature.
A very rare, Regan and Morrey's type IIIA fracture of the coronoid process of ulna is presented and discussed with a review of the literature. The operative approach to be used is emphasised. Open reduction and internal fixation render the elbow stable, and a good range of motion can be achieved if such fractures are fixed and mobilised early.
