Fascial arthroplasty for elbow ankylosis
Int Surg.
1983 Jan-Mar.
Abstract
Fifty-one cases of elbow ankylosis treated with fascial arthroplasty were studied. Forty-two cases (85.4%) of elbow ankylosis were due to injuries; chronic dislocation (24), traumatic myositis ossificans (14) and gunshot wounds (4). Eight were due to infection and one to congenital humero-radial synostosis. Seventy-six per cent of all cases had fairly good results and 24% were regarded as failures. The results obtained justify the use of fascial elbow arthroplasty for elbow ankylosis.
