We aimed to retrospectively analyze 18 cases of Monteggia variants and discuss the injury mechanisms, management, and outcome along with a re- view of the literature. Methods： A retrospective record of Monteggia frac- ture dislocation （2003-2008） was reviewed from medical record department of our institute.

The ulna fracture was treated by compression plating along with tension band wiring. Radial head/neck was reconstructed in 12 patients while excised in 6 patients.
