Implant consists of a head and a stem that must be assembled inseparably during the operation, using a self-clamp cone at the connection point
Indication for implantation:
Primary implantation in cases involving comminuted irreconstructible fracture of the head of the radius with plus-variant of the ulna or simultaneous injury of:
- medial ligament (primary stabilizer)
- radioulnar interosseal membrane (Essex-Lopresti)
- coronoideous ulnae and olecranum ulnae
Chronic indication:
- Status after extensive deliberation of the elbow
- with medial instability
- with deformity of the head
- Status after resection of the head
- with progressing valgosity of the elbow or narrowing of the radial half of the ulnohumeral joint
- with proximation of the radius and secondary plus-variant of the ulna with symptomatic distal radioulnar instability
