2024年5月22日 · Traditionally, elbow replacement surgery has had a higher rate of complications than surgeries to replace hip or knee joints. But recent advances in surgical technique and implant design have improved the success rate of elbow replacements.

2019年11月4日 · Welsink and the colleagues 17, 43) systematically analyzed 73 articles and reported overall outcomes: the weighted mean American Shoulder and Elbow Surgeons score was 66.7 points, patients with RA had a weighted mean Mayo Elbow Performance Score (MEPS) of 85.3 points, and those with trauma or fracture had a weighted mean MEPS of 84.1 points.

2024年11月1日 · Most people who have an elbow replacement have reduced pain, increased ability to move and use their arm, and an improved quality of life. How long do artificial elbows last?

2018年3月20日 · A 20-year effort initiated by Mayo Clinic has resulted in the development of a prosthetic elbow and surgical technique that appear to provide an elbow replacement with quality approaching that of hip and knee replacements.

2021年1月5日 · Short- and medium-term survival rates are reported at approximately 90% 12, 23; however, postoperative complication rates following TEA vary from 10%-45%. 46 Furthermore, a systematic review by Welsink et al 49 in 2017 reported favorable clinical outcomes with satisfactory range of motion in relation to flexion, extension, pronation, and ...

Although elbow joint replacement is much less common than knee, hip, or shoulder replacement, it is just as successful in relieving joint pain and returning people to daily activities.

Elbow arthroplasty is very successful in terms of pain relief, motion and function. However, its complication rate remains higher than arthroplasty of other joints. The overall success rate is best for patients with inflammatory arthritis and elderly patients with acute distal humerus fractures, worse for patients with posttraumatic osteoarthritis.

Results: The study reviewed 189 primary and 53 revision TEA patients. Fracture (34%), osteoarthritis (24%), and rheumatoid arthritis (23%) were the most common indications for TEA.

2011年3月16日 · Elbow arthroplasty is very successful in terms of pain relief, motion and function. However, its complication rate remains higher than arthroplasty of other joints. The overall success rate is best for patients with inflammatory arthritis and elderly patients with acute distal humerus fractures, worse for patients with posttraumatic osteoarthritis.

The results of elbow replacement are not as reliable as those of hip and knee replacements with 5 year replacement survival rates of about 80% reported. That means that by 5 years after the original operation, up to 20% (1 in 5) of patients will have required revision surgery..
