Abstract

Radial head fractures represent an osteoligamentous injury of the elbow and the forearm, respectively. Concomitant injuries have to be included in the primary treatment to avoid unnecessary complications. Given the heterogeneity of this pathology, there are a large variety of potential complications, which lead to surgical revision in a considerable number of cases. By combining a detailed clinical examination with radiologic imaging, possible treatment options can be determined based on the individual patient's situation. Post-traumatic elbow stiffness, instability and painful osteoarthritis of the radial column are the most common causes for surgical revision. Especially the latter presents a problematic pathology in the young and active patient. The following article provides an overview about the treatment options of painful sequelae following radial head fracture.
