Ulna fragment is resected by performing osteotomies parallel to each other in the area of the ulna neck and in proximal direction to remove the ulna fragment of length equal to the radial bone shortening. Ulna condylus is transposed to its proximal fragment, comparing their edges, and the achieved position is fixed by means of a metal structure.
