Abstract
The overall midterm outcome of this series of 25 cemented bipolar radial head arthroplasties can be considered favorable. There was 1 (4%) revision and 2 (8%) additional radiologic failures. The bipolar design was able to compensate for radiocapitellar malalignment. We suggest considering a cemented bipolar radial head prosthesis in case of concerns about radiocapitellar alignment.
