To review the results of plating of various fracture patterns of proximal ulna fractures including isolated olecranon fractures, olecranon fractures combined with a coronoid fracture, and olecranon fractures combined with a coronoid and radial head fracture.

The study included 38 patients with either an isolated olecranon fracture or combined injuries, all treated with open reduction and internal fixation of the olecranon. Other procedures were performed as needed, including radial head fixation or arthroplasty, fixation of the coronoid, and repair of the lateral collateral ligament complex. There were 27 men and 11 women with an average age of 49 years. Clinical and radiographic assessment was obtained at an average follow-up time of 15 and 8.4 months, respectively.
