Conversion of a Surgical Elbow Arthrodesis to Total Elbow Arthroplasty

Case Reports in Orthopedics, 2015
Arthrodesis of the elbow joint addresses pain due to intra-articular pathology, but with significant functional limitations. Loss of motion at the elbow is not completely compensated by the wrist and shoulder joints and elbow fusion is thus purely a ...

Elbow joint biomechanics during ADL focusing on total elbow arthroplasty - a scoping review

BMC Musculoskeletal Disorders, 2023
Background Overloading is hypothesized to be one of the failure mechanisms following total elbow arthroplasty (TEA). It is unclear whether the current post-operative loading instruction is compliant with reported failure mechanisms.

Reconstruction of the coronoid process with the olecranon tip for chronic elbow dislocation in children: A rare case report and literature review

Frontiers in Pediatrics, 2022
The coronoid process of the ulna, as a key part of the elbow joint, plays an important role in maintaining elbow joint stability. Reconstruction of the coronoid process is necessary in both acute and chronic coronoid defects to restore elbow stability ...
