Abstract

A 70-year-old female with a history of hypertension presented with a complex elbow injury following a fall. Imaging revealed fractures of the capitellum, lateral epicondyle, and olecranon. The fractures were managed using an extensile posterolateral approach through the anconeus muscle, achieving anatomical reduction and satisfactory functional outcomes 110° of flexion and full pronation/supination and Mayo Elbow Performance Score (MEPS) indicated an excellent outcome. This approach preserved the extensor origin and facilitated access for fixation, suggesting its potential as an alternative for managing such rare injuries.
