Resumen (ES)

Radial head resection is the accepted treatment of
comminuted radial-head fractures in adults. The purpose of
the present study was to evaluate the long-term outcomes of
primary radial head excision. A retrospective study was undertaken
of 18 patients with Mason type III and IV. The average
age at operation was 50 years and the average length of
follow-up was 6,8 years. Only four patients lost 15 degrees or
more of extension of the elbow. Pronation and supination
were decreased by an average of 3,7º and 8,4º respective. According
to the functional classification that we use, the average
of EMPS score was 83,3 with a 88,3% of satisfactory results
and the average of HSSS score was 71,1 with a 94% of
excellent o good results.
