Long-term Outcomes after Primary Radial Head Resection Arthroplasty vs. Acute Radial Head Resection vs. Secondary Prosthetic Removal in Comminuted Radial Head Fractures
Background: Aim of this study was to compare the clinical and radiological long-term outcomes following operativetreatment of comminuted radial head fractures using 1) primary radial head resection arthroplasty, 2) acute radial headresection, or 3) necessary secondary prosthetic removal. Additionally, we evaluated complex radial head fracturescombined with elbow dislocation and verified the hyp...
متن کاملComminuted fractures of the radial head treated by the Judet floating radial head prosthesis.
Excision is not a suitable treatment for all comminuted fractures of the radial head. In elbows where instability can be predicted, a replacement arthroplasty of the radial head is more effective. The aim of this paper was to present the medium-term results of the Judet floating radial head prosthesis. This operation was performed on 14 patients between 1992 and 2003, of whom 12 were reviewed a...
متن کاملComminuted fractures of the radial head
BACKGROUND There have been few reports on the long-term outcome of comminuted radial head fractures in adults. METHOD 10 women and 9 men with a mean age of 45 (21-65) years when they sustained a comminuted fracture of the radial head were re-evaluated after 15-25 years. 6 patients had been nonoperatively (NO) treated while 13 had had a radial head excision. The uninjured elbow served as a con...
متن کاملOutcome of Radial Head Arthroplasty in Comminuted Radial Head Fractures: Short and Midterm Results.
BACKGROUND Comminuted radial head fractures are often associated with secondary injuries and elbow instability. OBJECTIVES The aim of this retrospective study was to evaluate how well the modular metallic radial head implant EVOLVE® prosthesis restores functional range of motion (ROM) and stability of the elbow in acute care. PATIENTS AND METHODS Eighty-five patients with comminuted radial ...
متن کاملOne-year results of cemented bipolar radial head prostheses for comminuted radial head fractures
INTRODUCTION Comminuted radial head fractures (Mason type III) continue to pose a challenge to orthopedic surgeons. When internal fixation is not possible, radial head arthroplasty has been advocated as the treatment of choice. The purpose of this retrospective study was to evaluate clinical and radiological short-term results of patients with Mason type III radial head fractures treated with a...
