lüll Early results of the Souter-Strathclyde unlinked total elbow arthroplasty in patients with osteoarthritis Espag MP; Back DL; Clark DI; Lunn PGJ Bone Joint Surg Br 2003[Apr]; 85 (3): 351-3We have carried out a retrospective review of 11 Souter-Strathclyde primary total elbow arthroplasties in ten patients with osteoarthritis, over a period of nine years. The diagnosis was primary osteoarthritis in nine elbows and post-traumatic arthritis in two. The mean follow-up was 68 months (15 to 117). Although no patient was symptomatic, radiological review revealed evidence of loosening affecting three humeral and two ulnar components, one of which subsequently failed and was revised at 97 months. There were no dislocations, deep infections or mechanical failures. Complications included two superficial wound infections and two neurapraxias of the ulnar nerve which resolved. This study shows that the unlinked Souter-Strathclyde total elbow arthroplasty can be considered for patients with osteoarthritis and gives good symptomatic relief and improvement in function.|*Joint Prosthesis[MESH]|Aged[MESH]|Arthroplasty, Replacement/*methods[MESH]|Elbow Joint/*surgery[MESH]|Female[MESH]|Follow-Up Studies[MESH]|Humans[MESH]|Immobilization[MESH]|Male[MESH]|Middle Aged[MESH]|Osteoarthritis/physiopathology/*surgery[MESH]|Postoperative Care/methods[MESH]|Prosthesis Failure[MESH]|Range of Motion, Articular[MESH]|Recurrence[MESH]|Reoperation[MESH]|Treatment Outcome[MESH] |
