⚙️RadialHeadReplacement: Restoring Elbow Function

Описание: The #radialhead is a key stabilizer in the elbow, especially after trauma. When it’s shattered beyond repair, often from severe fractures, fixing it with plates or screws isn’t enough. That’s when a radial head #replacement becomes necessary.

🔹 Step 1: Remove the damaged fragments of the radial head.
🔹 Step 2: Size and select the proper implant.
🔹 Step 3: Secure the new radial head into the #radialshaft.
🔹 Step 4: Restore alignment and stability of the #elbowjoint.

The replacement works like a mechanical pivot, helping preserve motion, prevent instability, and protect the ligaments around the elbow.

💡 The goal: regain function, reduce pain, and prevent long-term arthritis.
