Evaluation of Monteggia Fracture Outcomes: Acute to Chronic.

Preoperative range of motion (ROM) was the most important factor in determining postoperative ROM in this cohort of patients with chronic Monteggia fractures. All patients who presented with excellent preoperative ROM, regardless of their timing category, had an excellent ROM outcome. Time from initial injury also played an important role. All patients in the acute and subacute categories had good or excellent postoperative ROM. Patients who were further from the initial injury were more likely to present with worse preoperative ROM and, in turn, had worse outcomes with postoperative ROM.
