“…This leads to a decrease in contact area and causes accelerated surface wear [20] . Moreover, the morphology of the capitulum provides significant variability making it difficult to predict which type of implant is suitable for each respective case [21] .…”

HighlightsOverstuffing is a serious yet avoidable complication of radial head arthroplasty.Overstuffing severely alters elbow joint kinematics and leads to capitellar erosion.Radiocapitellar arthroplasty can be a salvage procedure in such cases.Limited clinical data is available thus far regarding radiocapitellar arthroplasty.The possibility for early failure due to ulnohumeral erosion has to be considered.

“…A spherical component is commercially-available at this time, but the capitellum has been shown to have a somewhat ellipsoid surface shape. 17 It is not known if the surface shape of a capitellar implant is important for elbow kinematics and stability.…”

“…13 We selected implant sizes of 10-, 12-, or 14-mm radius based on the capitellar radius of curvature obtained during the registration and navigation process described below. The implant was designed to be secured to bone using a cemented post (Fig.…”
