The minimum follow-up period is over 10 years, and the average was 13 years 4 months. Surgical outcomes were evaluated using the VAS pain scale, range of motion, and radiologic outcomes including Larsen\u2019s grade and carrying angle.<\/jats:p><jats:p>Results: The mean VAS score was 39 (range, 10\u201390) at last follow-up. The only one patient underwent revision surgery. The mean flexion-extension range of elbow was -28\u00b0\u2013112\u00b0 and arc of motion was 82\u00b0 before surgery. The mean flexion-extension range of elbow was -23\u00b0\u2013114\u00b0, and arc of motion was 90\u00b0 at last follow-up. Radiologic findings of nine elbows in 21 elbows worsened at last follow-up according to the Larsen\u2013s grade. Carrying angle increased by mean 4.2\u00b0, and it increased by 10\u00b0 or more in four elbows.<\/jats:p><jats:p>Conclusions: Our results show that open synovectomy with radial head resection resulted in functional motion maintenance and pain control for a long time, but often resulted in an elbow valgus deformity. Our findings suggest open synovectomy can be considered as palliative treatment for painful rheumatoid elbow.<\/jats:p>","DOI":"10.1142\/s2424835518500194","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2018,5,8]],"date-time":"2018-05-08T02:18:02Z","timestamp":1525745882000},"page":"192-197","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":4,"title":["Long-term Outcome of Open Synovectomy with Radial Head Resection for Rheumatoid Elbow"],"prefix":"10.1142","volume":"23","author":[{"given":"Masanori","family":"Nakayama","sequence":"first","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Orthopedic Surgery, Institute of Rheumatology, Tokyo Women\u2019s Medical University, Tokyo, Japan"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Yu","family":"Sakuma","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Orthopedic Surgery, Institute of Rheumatology, Tokyo Women\u2019s Medical University, Tokyo, Japan"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Hitoshi","family":"Imamura","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Orthopedic Surgery, Institute of Rheumatology, Tokyo Women\u2019s Medical University, Tokyo, Japan"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Koichiro","family":"Yano","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Orthopedic Surgery, Institute of Rheumatology, Tokyo Women\u2019s Medical University, Tokyo, Japan"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Katsunori","family":"Ikari","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Orthopedic Surgery, Institute of Rheumatology, Tokyo Women\u2019s Medical University, Tokyo, Japan"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]}],"member":"219","published-online":{"date-parts":[[2018,5,7]]},"reference":[{"key":"p_1","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1136\/ard.49.Suppl_2.871"},{"key":"p_2","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1007\/s10067-004-0884-9"},{"key":"p_3","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1016\/j.jse.2010.08.026"},{"key":"p_4","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1016\/j.jse.2013.06.013"},{"key":"p_5","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1016\/S1297-319X(01)00273-1"},{"key":"p_6","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1016\/S0363-5023(97)80164-5"},{"key":"p_7","doi-asserted-by":"crossref","first-page":"119","DOI":"10.1097\/00003086-198707000-00015","volume":"220","author":"Ferlic DC","year":"1987","journal-title":"Clin Orthop Relat Res."},{"key":"p_8","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.3109\/17453678608993220"},{"key":"p_9","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.3109\/17453674.2012.702391"},{"key":"p_10","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.2106\/00004623-199610000-00012"},{"key":"p_11","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1016\/0883-5403(94)90081-7"},{"key":"p_12","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1016\/j.jse.2010.05.003"},{"key":"p_13","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1302\/0301-620X.79B6.7408"},{"issue":"5","key":"p_14","first-page":"892","volume":"33","author":"Fuerst M","year":"2006","journal-title":"J Rheumatol."},{"key":"p_15","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.3109\/s10165-006-0547-6"},{"key":"p_16","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1002\/art.1780310302"},{"key":"p_18","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1302\/0301-620X.58B4.1018036"},{"key":"p_19","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1302\/0301-620X.71B4.2768318"},{"key":"p_20","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1302\/0301-620X.61B1.422636"},{"key":"p_21","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1302\/0301-620X.66B1.6693467"},{"key":"p_22","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1136\/ard.60.8.765"}],"container-title":["The Journal of Hand Surgery (Asian-Pacific Volume)"],"original-title":[],"language":"en","link":[{"URL":"https:\/\/www.worldscientific.com\/doi\/pdf\/10.1142\/S2424835518500194","content-type":"unspecified","content-version":"vor","intended-application":"similarity-checking"}],"deposited":{"date-parts":[[2022,8,22]],"date-time":"2022-08-22T16:54:18Z","timestamp":1661187258000},"score":1,"resource":{"primary":{"URL":"https:\/\/www.worldscientific.com\/doi\/abs\/10.1142\/S2424835518500194"}},"subtitle":[],"short-title":[],"issued":{"date-parts":[[2018,5,7]]},"references-count":21,"journal-issue":{"issue":"02","published-online":{"date-parts":[[2018,5,7]]},"published-print":{"date-parts":[[2018,6]]}},"alternative-id":["10.1142\/S2424835518500194"],"URL":"https:\/\/doi.org\/10.1142\/s2424835518500194","relation":{},"ISSN":["2424-8355","2424-8363"],"issn-type":[{"value":"2424-8355","type":"print"},{"value":"2424-8363","type":"electronic"}],"subject":[],"published":{"date-parts":[[2018,5,7]]}}}
