Abstract

Purpose: The elbow joint is one of the most stable joints. Dislocation and fracture can occur in elbow joint most commonly next to shoulder joint. Various injuries can occur according to generated mechanism, age of patient and impact. Despite proper treatment, various complications can occur. Materials and Methods: We describe etiology and treatment of these complications after elbow trauma such as stiffness, instability and heterotopic ossification. Results and Conclusion: Malunion, nonunion and traumatic arthritis are addressed as a possible complication after fracture around elbow joint.

목적: 주관절은 인체에서 가장 안정적인 관절 중 하나지만, 견관절 다음으로 탈구와 골절이 흔히 발생한다. 이러한 손상은 발생 당시 기전과 환자의 나이 그리고 충격에 따라 다양하게 나타나는데 적절한 치료에도 불구하고 여러 가지 합병증들이 발생 가능하다. 이에 저자들은 외상후 합병증을 고찰하고자 한다. 대상 및 방법: 저자들은 일반적인 주관절 탈구의 합병증인 관절 운동제한, 불안정성, 그리고 관절 주위 이소성 골형성의 원인과 치료 등에 대해 기술하였다. 결과 및 결론: 주관절 주위 골절 이후 발생 가능한 합병증 중 부정유합, 불유합, 외상성 관절염 등에 대한 그 기전과 치료에 대해 기술하고자 한다.
