Journal of Shoulder and Elbow Surgery Sep 05, 2020

Bellevue KD, Lorenzana DJ, Klifto CS, et al. - This study was undertaken to present a surgical technique and report outcomes of patients who underwent revision total elbow arthroplasty (TEA) with implantation of the ulnar component into the radius to address ulna bony defects. Between 2014 and 2019, researchers conducted a retrospective review including a total of five patients at a single institution in which the ulnar component was implanted into the radius to address large bony defects in the setting of revision TEA. The results of this study exhibited that this salvage technique was effective at serving a stable elbow in patients with large ulna bony defects as a result of prosthetic joint infection (PJI) or peri-prosthetic fracture.
