Abstract:
Objective To evaluate the treatment of radial head fracture of different type. Methods The clinical data of 80 radial head fracture cases from November, 1999 to December,2009 were collected and analyzed retrospectively. Among the 80 cases,12 cases received conservative treatment( all type Mason Ⅰ ) ;48 cases received open reduction internal fixation (ORIF) (4 case type Mason Ⅰ ,15 cases type Mason Ⅱ ,24 cases type Mason Ⅲ,5 cases type Mason Ⅳ ); 12 cases received removing radial head ( 4 cases type Mason Ⅲ and 8 cases type Ⅳ ).8 cases received artificial joint replacement ( 8 cases type Mason Ⅳ ). Results All cases were followed up for 1.0 -4. 1 years. According to the Mayo Elbow Performance Index, the excellent and good rate of treatment in nonoperative,ORIF,excision of the radial head as well as artificial joint replacement was 83.3 % (10/12) ,87.5 %(42/48) ,75.0% (9/12) and 100. 0% (8/8) ,respectively. Conclusions Conservative treatment can be selected for type Mason Ⅰ ;Open reduction and internal fixation can be selected for type Mason Ⅱ , type Mason Ⅲ and part of type Mason Ⅳ. The excision of radial head or mental prosthesis replacement is alternative for type Mason Ⅳ for those can not be treated with open reduction and internal fixation.
