Radial head arthroplasty: fixed-stem implants are not all equal—a systematic review and meta-analysis [PDF]
Background: Numerous fixed-stem implants exist for radial head arthroplasty; therefore, we conducted a systematic review to compare the safety and efficacy of different types of fixed-stem implants. Methods: We conducted a literature search, updated from

Radial Head Arthroplasty among Patients with Radial Head Fracture in a Tertiary Care Centre: A Descriptive Cross-sectional Study [PDF]
Introduction: Proximal radial fractures are a common type of fracture around the elbow joint. Among these comminuted radial head fractures are commonly associated with secondary injuries and instability of the elbow joint.

Good outcomes of bipolar radial head arthroplasty for comminuted radial head fractures: a cohort study of 64 patients with an average 5.2-year follow-up [PDF]
Aims: Radial head fractures are among the most common upper limb fractures, constituting up to 30% of all elbow fractures. While many can be managed non-surgically with favourable outcomes, approximately one-third require surgical intervention ...

Does the polarity of radial head arthroplasty affect functional outcomes? A systematic review and meta-analysis [PDF]
Background Radial head arthroplasty allows a high degree of customizability, and implant polarity has emerged as an important variable. The purpose of this meta-analysis was to evaluate differences in functional and clinical outcomes between patients ...

Radial head arthroplasty diameter impact on elbow kinematics evaluated by dynamic radiostereometric analysis [PDF]
Purpose Radial head arthroplasty (RHA) reestablishes elbow stability after complex radial head fracture, but complication rates are high, possibly due to inappropriate implant sizing.

Monteggia-like lesions in adults treated with radial head arthroplasty—mid-term follow-up of 27 cases [PDF]
Background The aim of the study was to analyze the functional and radiological outcome of Monteggia-like lesions in adults with unreconstructible fracture of the radial head and treatment with radial head arthroplasty. Methods Twenty-seven patients (mean

Osteosynthesis versus arthroplasty in the management of radial head fractures: a retrospective cohort study [PDF]
Background: Radial head fractures are among the most common elbow injuries in adults. The choice between osteosynthesis and radial head arthroplasty (RHA) remains controversial, particularly in comminuted or unstable fracture patterns. This study aims to

Retrospective study to know the outcome of radial head replacement in acute fracture of radial head
Background: Radial head arthroplasty is commonly used to treat acute unreconstructible radial head fractures. The purpose of this study was to report on the clinical and radiographic outcomes after radial head arthroplasty with a metallic implant for the
