Abstract

Ligament reconstruction surgery at the elbow can be performed to treat medial or lateral instabilities of the elbow joint. Recurring instability occurs in about 2% following medial ligament reconstruction and in about 8% following lateral ligament reconstruction. Other complications that require revision after ligament reconstruction are deep or superficial infections, olecranon osteopyhtes (4.4-11.7%), avulsion fractures (0-2.2%) and pathologies of the ulnar nerve (0-24%). This article aims to summarize causes and therapeutic strategies of revisions following elbow ligament reconstruction.
