Forbidden positions: 1, 2, 3, 4.

Safe positions: 5, 6, 7, 8, 9, 10, 11, 12

Reference positions: 5, 6, 7, 8, 9

COMMENTS:

Only console transosseous elements can be used in the projection of positions 7,8,9,10.
Close disposition of n.radialis to the radial bone in pos.1 proposes the application in the projection of the pos.7 of console transosseous elements that perforate only posterolateral cortical plate.
The application of positions 5, 7, 8, 9 is optimal at this level, because in this case the transosseous elements will minimally stand in the way of soft tissue displacement relative to the radial bone while motions in the elbow joint.
 

   

 

The transosseous elements recommended for use at the radial level I can be designated as: I,5(I,5); (I,6); (I,7); (I,8); (I,9)
