A <strong>comparative</strong> <strong>study</strong> <strong>of</strong> <strong>tension</strong> <strong>b<strong>and</strong></strong> <strong>wiring</strong> <strong>and</strong><br />

<strong>reconstruction</strong> plating in olecranon fractures<br />

<strong>b<strong>and</strong></strong> <strong>wiring</strong> then plate fixation. Pin loosening <strong>and</strong> proximal<br />

migration <strong>of</strong> K-wire was also more common with <strong>tension</strong> <strong>b<strong>and</strong></strong><br />

<strong>wiring</strong>. There was no case <strong>of</strong> non-union or failure <strong>of</strong> fixation in<br />

the present <strong>study</strong> in either group. The cost effectiveness <strong>of</strong><br />

<strong>tension</strong> <strong>b<strong>and</strong></strong> <strong>wiring</strong> is better to 3.5 mm <strong>reconstruction</strong> plate<br />

but comparing the clinical <strong>and</strong> radiological results <strong>of</strong> both the<br />

groups the 3.5 mm <strong>reconstruction</strong> plate shows better clinical<br />

<strong>and</strong> radiological statistics than TBW.<br />
