Radial head resection for isolated fracture in young patients presents satisfactory results, with very low losses of elbow mobility and strength. Despite the high presence of osteoarthritic changes or lower clinical signs of instability, elbow pain and disability are very low. Our conclusion, based in these results, is that radial head resection is still a useful surgical procedure for isolated fractures even in young patients.
