RHEUMATIC DISEASES, OSTEOPHYTE, OLECRANON PROCESS, TENDONSAbstract
Background: olecranon bursopathy associated to heel spur by traction with a minimal traumatic etiology, continued friction and activities or leisure pursuits associated to a vigorous spreading of the elbow, has had slender research information.
Objective: to describe the operating results for this condition, where the conservative treatment was not satisfactory, on patients attended to at the “Dr. Ernesto Guevara de la Serna” General Teaching Hospital of Las Tunas, from December 2010 to July 2016.
Methods: an observational study was carried out with patients diagnosed with olecranon bursitis in its different types, attended to at the institution and during the period herein mentioned. The universe was made up of the whole of the cases with pain and deformity in the posterior region of the elbow and the sample consisted of 28 patients chosen at random. The surgical treatment was conditioned to the classification of the lesion in degrees, according to the macroscopic characteristics of the bursa, the adherences, septa, sclerotic hypertrophy, relapses or heel spur fractures.
Results: the age average was 33,6 years; it was more frequent in the male sex with an 8:1 relation. The surgical procedures used were bursal resection, heel spur resection and unharmed-olecranon-bone heel spur resection. Cicatrization delay was the main complication. The results were excellent according Mayo Elbow Performance Index and Analogical Visual Scale on 98 % and 97 % respectively.
Conclusions: the operating results on patients with olecranon bursitis associated to heel spur by traction were satisfactory.Downloads
