Anterior Elbow Subluxation After Radial Head Arthroplasty for Fracture Dislocation of the Elbow

We describe a case of elbow dislocation with Hotchkiss type III radial head fracture and Regan-Morrey type II coronoid process fracture, which was treated with radial head replacement. It was complicated with oversizing of prosthesis, resulting in elbow subluxation. It was treated with radial shaft...
