Functional outcome and radiographs were analyzed after a mean follow\u2010up period of 39 months (range, 12 to 97 months). Elbow arthroscopy was performed using a standardized technique. The anterior three quarters of the radial head and 2 to 3 mm of the radial neck were resected with the abrader in the anterolateral portal and the arthroscope in the proximal medial portal. For resection of the posterior portion of the radial head, the abrader may be transferred to the mediolateral portal. This permits resection of the remnants of the radial head posteriorly and also at the proximal radioulnar joint.<\/jats:p>\n                  <\/jats:sec>\n                  <jats:sec>\n                    <jats:title>Results:<\/jats:title>\n                    <jats:p>Preoperatively, patients lacked 23\u00b0 (range, 5\u00b0 to 40\u00b0) of extension of the elbow on average. Mean flexion was 111\u00b0 (range, 60\u00b0 to 145\u00b0). Patients had unrestricted pronation (limitation of 5\u00b0 in 2 patients). Two patients had a lack of supination of 15\u00b0 and 30\u00b0. Mean follow up was 39 months (range, 12 to 97 months). Postoperatively, patients lacked 9\u00b0 (range, 0\u00b0 to 20\u00b0) of extension of the elbow on average. Mean flexion was 136\u00b0 (range, 90\u00b0 to 150\u00b0). No patient had subjective or objective evidence of instability of the elbow. All patients except one reported significant improvement in pain relief and complete relief of mechanical symptoms.<\/jats:p>\n                  <\/jats:sec>\n                  <jats:sec>\n                    <jats:title>Conclusions:<\/jats:title>\n                    <jats:p>This technically demanding surgical procedure should be reserved for situations of persistent, restricted range of motion and chronic pain. Arthroscopic radial head resection combined with arthroscopic synovectomy relieves elbow stiffness. The surgeon is able to deal with the intrinsic joint pathology, as well as with accompanying symptoms such as synovitis, capsular contracture, or loose bodies.<\/jats:p>\n                  <\/jats:sec>","DOI":"10.1053\/jars.2001.28929","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2002,8,24]],"date-time":"2002-08-24T23:46:10Z","timestamp":1030232770000},"page":"918-923","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":74,"title":["Arthroscopic excision of the radial head"],"prefix":"10.1002","volume":"17","author":[{"given":"Wolfgang A.","family":"Menth\u2010Chiari","sequence":"first","affiliation":[{"name":"Trauma Center University of Vienna Medical School Vienna General Hospital Vienna Austria"},{"name":"Department of Orthopaedic Surgery Wake Forest University School of Medicine Baptist Medical Center Winston\u2010Salem North Carolina U.S.A."}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"David S.","family":"Ruch","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Trauma Center University of Vienna Medical School Vienna General Hospital Vienna Austria"},{"name":"Department of Orthopaedic Surgery Wake Forest University School of Medicine Baptist Medical Center Winston\u2010Salem North Carolina U.S.A."}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Gary G.","family":"Poehling","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Trauma Center University of Vienna Medical School Vienna General Hospital Vienna Austria"},{"name":"Department of Orthopaedic Surgery Wake Forest University School of Medicine Baptist Medical Center Winston\u2010Salem North Carolina U.S.A."}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]}],"member":"311","published-online":{"date-parts":[[2001,11,1]]},"reference":[{"key":"e_1_2_3_2_1","series-title":"The elbow and its disorders.","first-page":"383","volume-title":"Radial head fracture","author":"Morrey BF.","year":"1993"},{"key":"e_1_2_3_3_1","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.2106\/00004623-199502000-00019"},{"key":"e_1_2_3_4_1","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.3928\/0147-7447-19920701-10"},{"key":"e_1_2_3_5_1","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1016\/S0030-5898(20)32029-0"},{"key":"e_1_2_3_6_1","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1016\/S1058-2746(96)80033-4"},{"key":"e_1_2_3_7_1","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1016\/S0278-5919(20)30614-1"},{"key":"e_1_2_3_8_1","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1097\/00002281-199503000-00006"},{"key":"e_1_2_3_9_1","series-title":"Arthroscopy of the wrist and elbow","first-page":"129","volume-title":"Elbow arthroscopy\u2014Introduction and overview","author":"Poehling GG","year":"1994"},{"key":"e_1_2_3_10_1","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1177\/036354659402200213"},{"key":"e_1_2_3_11_1","series-title":"Operative arthroscopy","first-page":"887","volume-title":"Arthroscopic management of arthrofibrosis of the elbow","author":"Savoie FH","year":"1996"},{"key":"e_1_2_3_12_1","first-page":"84","article-title":"Arthroscopy of the elbow","volume":"74","author":"O'Driscoll SW","year":"1992","journal-title":"J Bone Joint Surg Am"},{"key":"e_1_2_3_13_1","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1016\/S0278-5919(20)30132-0"},{"key":"e_1_2_3_14_1","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1053\/ar.1999.v15.0150221"},{"key":"e_1_2_3_15_1","first-page":"217","article-title":"Arthroscopy of the elbow","volume":"44","author":"Poehling GG","year":"1995","journal-title":"Instr Course Lect"},{"key":"e_1_2_3_16_1","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1016\/S0749-8063(05)80422-0"},{"key":"e_1_2_3_17_1","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.2106\/00004623-196648060-00003"},{"key":"e_1_2_3_18_1","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.3109\/17453677408989123"},{"key":"e_1_2_3_19_1","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.2106\/00004623-198668050-00005"},{"key":"e_1_2_3_20_1","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1097\/00005373-199712000-00016"},{"key":"e_1_2_3_21_1","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.3109\/17453678109050121"},{"key":"e_1_2_3_22_1","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1016\/S1058-2746(99)90147-7"},{"key":"e_1_2_3_23_1","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1302\/0301-620X.80B2.0800231"},{"key":"e_1_2_3_24_1","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1016\/S0749-8063(05)80068-4"},{"key":"e_1_2_3_25_1","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1016\/S1058-2746(99)90131-3"},{"key":"e_1_2_3_26_1","series-title":"Elbow joint","first-page":"177","volume-title":"Osteoarthritis of the elbow\u2010joint: Intra\u2010articular changes and the special operative procedure.
