Radial head arthroplasty (RHA) is a popular method of treatment for complex fractures of the radial head. The purpose of this study was to investigate patient outcomes and radiographic findings associated with a single anatomical monopolar press-fit radial head system commonly used for the treatment of radial head fractures. A retrospective review of prospectively collected data was performed for a consecutive series of patients treated with RHA between November 2007 and April 2014. Patients with a minimum of 12-month follow-up were included. Most recent radiographs were evaluated for loosening, stress shielding, and instability. Post-operative motion and outcomes were reported at most-recent follow-up.Background
