| Abstract: | BackgroundTo report mid-term clinical outcomes after radial head arthroplasty for terrible-triad fracture dislocations.MethodsFourteen patients with terrible triad fracture dislocations treated acutely with arthroplasty and minimum 3-year follow-up. Mayo Elbow Performance Scale (MEPS) and QuickDASH scores.ResultsAll patients achieved excellent (58%) or good (42%) results on the MEPS. Average QuickDASH score was 9.1 (range 0-25). Reoperation rate was 28%.ConclusionsAcute radial head arthroplasty as a treatment for nonreconstructable radial head fractures in the setting of terrible triad elbow injuries demonstrates good midterm functional outcomes.Level of EvidenceLevel IV; Retrospective Case Series Study |
