Resection of the radial head is an alternative in case of complex fractures. There are two drawbacks. The first is an unstable elbow in valgus if the medial ligaments are damaged. The second is an ascension of the radius if the interosseous membrane is damaged. Osteosynthesis is another alternative which is difficult to achieve and does not give good results (in our experience in comparison with 20 equivalent fractures, and in the literature). The GUEPAR radial head prosthesis appears to be a good solution. It stabilizes the elbow, prevents ascension of the radius, allows early rehabilitation, and provides good subjective results, particularly after emergency surgery.
