Treatment of Atypical Fracture of the Ulnar Diaphysis by Open Reduction and Internal Fixation with Teriparatide
Atypical fractures commonly arise in the subtrochanteric region or the femoral shaft, whereas those of the upper extremities are rare. Only 15 fractures in 13 patients have been described in the English literature. The management of such fractures has not been established. We describe a patient with...

description | Atypical fractures commonly arise in the subtrochanteric region or the femoral shaft, whereas those of the upper extremities are rare. Only 15 fractures in 13 patients have been described in the English literature. The management of such fractures has not been established. We describe a patient with an atypical fracture of the ulnar diaphysis, which required revision surgery to achieve the union of the fracture site. Teriparatide together with low-intensity pulsed ultrasound contributed to bone healing. Further studies are needed to determine the optimal strategy for treating atypical fractures of the ulna. |
