Brief Summary

Review the sponsor-provided synopsis that highlights what the study is about and why it is being conducted.

Fractures of the radial head are among the most common fractures in the elbow and represent one-third of all elbow fractures.This retrospective cohort study was performed between 2004 and 2014 at Sundsvall and Umeå University hospital, Sweden. All patients who were operated on between 2004 and 2014 with a radial head arthroplasty for an acute or sequelae due to a caput radii fracture.The aim of this study is to evaluate clinical or radiological differences between patients treated with a unipolar or bipolar radial head arthroplasty.
