Background The purpose of this study was to systematically review the literature to evaluate
the functional outcomes, radiologic outcomes, and revision rates following radial head …

Since the introduction of the radial head prosthesis (RHP) in 1941, many designs have been
introduced. It is not clear whether prosthesis design parameters are related to early failure …

Introduction The role of bipolar radial head prostheses (RHP) in elbow fracture-dislocation is
controversial, with some reports of poorer stabilization than with monopolar designs. The …

Background The evidence for treating acute, unreconstructable radial head fractures in
unstable elbows with radial head replacement predominantly consists of short-to mid-term …

Background Radial head excision has historically been a common surgical procedure for
the operative management of radial head fractures and post-traumatic conditions. With …

Background: Revision rates following radial head arthroplasty (RHA) for unreconstructible
radial head fractures (RHFs) differ vastly in the literature, and little is known about the risk …

Background Radial head fractures represent 1–4% of all adult fractures and 1/3rd of elbow
fractures (Kaas et al., 2010). Radial head is an important secondary stabilier of the elbow …

Purpose The purpose of this study was to evaluate implant survivorship and clinical
outcomes following radial head arthroplasty for fracture at long-term follow-ups. Methods A …

There has been lively debate regarding the rationale behind the use of radial head
arthroplasty (RHA) for more than 80 years. Currently, its primary indication is for treatment of …

Purpose It is generally accepted that a radial head fracture (RHF) with more than three parts
is not suitable for repair; therefore, most authors suggest straightforward radial head …
