Various positioning techniques have been described for the osteosynthesis of olecranon fractures, each with their own pros and cons. The supine position is time-efficient and better suited in a polytrauma setting but frequently requires an assistant to maintain optimal limb positioning. Also, adequate fluoroscopic imaging is not possible without moving the operative extremity outside the sterile field. We describe a simple and reproducible method addressing these limitations while providing excellent surgical access and intraoperative imaging.
