Implant-related infection is one of the leading reasons for failure in orthopaedics and trauma,
and results in high social and economic costs. Various antibacterial coating technologies …

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 …

Background Radial head replacement is the main line of treating complex unstable elbow
injuries. Radial head prostheses are either monopolar or bipolar. The difference between …

Background and Objectives: Following the most recent software and 3D printing
developments, the use of personalized 3D printed orthopedic implants for treatment of …

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: 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 …

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 …

Purpose Radial head arthroplasty (RHA) reestablishes elbow stability after complex radial
head fracture, but complication rates are high, possibly due to inappropriate implant sizing …

Background: Revision of radial head arthroplasty (RHA) may be indicated in cases of
prosthesis loosening and malposition. Inherent difficulties in revision surgery include poor …

Background Radial head arthroplasty is a common procedure in elbow surgery. It has been
shown to be of benefit for the patients, but there also are relevant complications that should …
