Abstract
Radial head fracture accounts for one third of the elbow joint fracture. At present, for fractures without obvious displacement, non operative treatment can achieve good results. In the case of complicated comminuted fracture of the radial head, open reduction with internal fixation and the radial head replacement have their own advantages and disadvantages. There is no exact reference for the selection of surgical procedures, and the best treatment regimen remains controversial. No matter which method is adopted, it is necessary to repair accompanied injuries. Meanwhile, postoperative standard rehabilitation exercise is also essential for the recovery of elbow function. The typing of radial head comminuted fracture and the status quo of its treatment is reviewed in this paper, so as to provide reference for better clinical treatment. Key words: Radius fractures; Fracture fixation, internal; Arthroplasty, replacement
