Presenting

This x-ray shows a 60 year old man with a nonunion of the upper ulna (forearm) that had failed 3 prior reconstructions performed at outside facilities by other physicians, the most recent with a plate and screws.

 

Result After Treatment by Dr. Brinker

These final x-rays show stabilization with a blade plate, a very rigid form of fixation, and bone grafting, which led to healing of the nonunion.
