Background. The quest for the perfectly designed elbow prosthesis continues as instability and loosening remain the foremost reasons for the failure of total elbow replacement (TER). The Discovery® Elbow System (Biomet, UK) (Figure 1), which has been used in UK since 2003, is one of the latest generations of linked prosthesis. This system was designed to decrease polyethylene-bushing wear, improve anatomic stem design, restore elbow joint biomechanics, and produce a hinge that could be easily revised. This report describes the short term outcome of TER using the Discovery® Elbow System. Patients and Methods. A total of 60 TERs including 48 primary and 12 revisions were performed between 2003 and 2008. Patients included 21 males (37%) and 36 females (63%) with a mean age of 63 years. The indications for primary TER were advanced rheumatoid arthritis (n=19), osteoarthritis (n=16), post traumatic osteoarthritis (n=9), acute fractures (n=3), and haemophilic arthropathy (n=1). The outcome was assessed using pain score, Liverpool Elbow Score (LES), and range of movement during a mean follow-up of 26 months. Associated complications were documented. Radiological assessment included evaluation for loosening, instability and periprosthetic fractures. Results. The mean LES was significantly (p<0.001) improved from 3.8 (±1) pre-operatively to 6.9 (±2) at the final follow- up. Significant improvements were noted in elbow flexion from 100° (±22) to 120° (±15), supination from 41° (±28) to 65° (±20) and pronation from 52° (±22) to 72° (±18). There was no significant change in elbow extension. Mean improvement in flexion-extension and pronation-supination arc was 22° and 44°, respectively. 46 cases (77%) were completely pain-free at the final follow-up. The main complications included deep infection (4 cases – treated with staged revision TER), postoperative ulnar neuropathy (3 cases–treated with decompression), intra-operative fractures of medial condyle (3 cases – treated non-operatively with brace), and elbow haemarthrosis (1 case). Discussion. TER with Discovery® Elbow System resulted in either no pain or mild pain in 87% of cases. Patients undergoing Acclaim, Souter-Strathclyde, GSB III, and Coonrad-Morrey TER have been reported to have no/mild pain in 64%, 67%, 50–92% and 60–100% of cases, respectively. A 22° improvement in flexion-extension arc is comparable to that of Acclaim (23°), Souter-Strathclyde (15°), GSB III (19–33°), and Coonrad-Morrey (17–26°) TER. An improvement of 44° in pronation-supination arc in our series is also comparable to that of 31–67° reported for GSB III and higher than the Coonrad-Morrey prosthesis (21–28°). In terms of complications, an infection rate of 6.7% is consistent with those reported for GSB III TER (7–11%) and Coonrad-Morrey (6–8%). The incidence of persistent ulnar neuropathy was lower compared to GSB III TER (11–14%), Coonrad-Morrey (12–26%), and Acclaim (8%). While the survival of Discovery TER was 93%, the survival of GSB III (5–6 years) and Coonrad-Morrey (5 years) has been reported as 71–85% and 72–90%. The results indicate that Discovery® Elbow System is an effective device for total elbow arthroplasty in terms of functional improvement, pain relief and range of motion at short-term follow-up
