ABSTRACT
Dislocations and fracture dislocations with their typical fracture patterns may substantially affect the complex anatomy and integrity of the elbow joint. The more components of the joint are injured, the more technically demanding is the therapy. Standardized diagnostic and therapeutic algorithms help to avoid misinterpretations regarding the severity of the injury and the subsequent complications. In elbow dislocations and fracture dislocations with persistent instability the hinged external fixator is an excellent device to improve joint stability and allows physiotherapeutic assistance at an early stage.
