Nine months after operation all the patients had good joint function, little or no pain, complete healing and no significant periarticular calcification. This simple semi-closed procedure may help to avoid resection of the radial head in some cases.

In a retrospective analysis of a two-year period (1994 to 1996), 324 c...
