Evaluation of results of fracture head and neck of radius managed by varius methods

Abstract

Background: Radial head fractures are the most frequent fracture type reported around the elbow. Fractures have been documented to occur in isolation or with other associated osseous and soft tissue injuries. However, despite intensive research into these injuries, controversies still exist regarding the role of further imaging modalities, the use of non-operative management, as well as the indication and technique for operative intervention.
Aims and Objective: To analyses the clinical and functional outcome of patients with head and neck fracture of radius managed by conservative method, open reduction and internal fixation, radial head prosthesis and radial head excision.
