Orthopaedic injuries involving the olecranon are among the most often encountered in the emergency department. Objective: To determine the functional outcomes of displaced olecranon fracture fixed with intermedullary partially threaded screw augmented with tension band wiring Material and methods: This Descriptive/multicentric case series was conducted in Department of Orthopedics, Bahawal Victoria Hospital/Civil (Sadiq Abbasi) Hospital, Bahawalpur during June 2019 to June 2021. Patients who came through the emergency department and met the inclusion criteria were enrolled and given informed permission after clearance from the hospital's ethics committee. During general anesthesia or a biere’s block, all patients received tension band wire and intramedullary screw fixation. Results: Functional outcomes of displaced olecranon fracture fixed with intermedullary partially threaded screw augmented with tension band wiring was recorded as excellent in 57.39%(n=66), 32.17%(n=37) had good outcome, 10.44%(n=12) had fair outcome. Conclusion: We concluded that that functional outcomes of displaced olecranon fracture fixed with intermedullary partially threaded screw augmented with tension band wiring is good; however, validation is required through other local studies. Key words: Olecranon fracture, Intramedullary partially threaded screw, Tension band wiring, and Campbell’s posterolateral approach
