An in-vitro biomechanical comparison of annular ligament repair and reconstructions to restore radial head stability in anterior Monteggia fractures

An in-vitro biomechanical comparison of annular ligament repair and reconstructions to restore radial head stability in anterior Monteggia fractures

Background: Persistent or recurrent instability of the radial head (RH) remains a challenge in treating anterior Monteggia fractures despite anatomic restoration of the ulna. RH instability may be caused by the pull of the biceps muscle with rupture of the annular ligament and other soft tissue stab...
