Coronoid fracture Picture


Coronoid fracture


The coronoid is located at the end of the ulna (the larger of the two lower
arm bones) It is a projection of the bone that makes up part of the elbow. Coronoid Fractures are typically associated with other fractures and
dislocations around the elbow. Coronoid fractures typically occur during
falls on an outstretched hand which pushes the ulna upward causing the coronoid
to fracture.



Symptoms of coronoid fracture



  • Elbow pain

  • Swelling

  • Bruising

  • Inability to move the elbow

  • Deformity that can be both seen and felt

  • Numbness and coldness below the elbow.
