Mid-term outcomes of 77 modular radial head prostheses

Abstract

Bipolar and press-fit RHA gives unsatisfactory mid-term outcomes in the treatment of acute fractures of the radial head or their sequelae. The outcome may vary according to the design of the implant. The rate of re-operation during the first three years is predictive of the long-term survival in tight-fitting RHAs. Cite this article: <i>Bone Joint J</i> 2017;99-B1197-1203.
