Purpose We had evaluated our experience in the treatment of displaced and comminuted radial head fractures with pyrocarbon radial head prosthesis. Methods From May 2003 to July 2008, radial head prostheses were performed in 47 patients. There were 29 female and 18 male with mean age 51 (34–70 years).

Dissections were performed using magnifying loupes and hands were processed using the Spalteholz technique....
