Abstract
Fractures of radial head can present difficult problems in the management. If the head is comminuted and is associated with Mason type IV and Essex Lopressti injury to forearm, simple excision of the radial head may lead to instability of the elbow joint and painfully restricted movements of the wrist. Management should be aimed at achieving the normal anatomy so that the function of elbow, radio-ulnar and wrist joints will be restored to a satisfactory level. We would like to present a case report where a patient with comminuted fracture of the radial head with dislocation of the elbow was managed with metallic head replacement.
