Summary
Aim:
To present authors´ experience with different methods of elbow arthrolysis.
Material and Methods:
Between 2003 and 2009, 39 men and 7 women with mean age of 41,5 years underwent operative arthrolysis of the elbow joint. Just in a half of cases was trauma a cause of rigidity. Mean range of motion (ROM) before surgery was 58,0° (range, 0° - 105°).
Results:
Mean ROM immediately after the surgery was 118,6°. It means the average increase of ROM 60,6°. At last follow-up control was the mean ROM 111,0°. The loss of ROM presented 7,6° at average. The final ROM increase was meanly 53,0° (range, 20° - 125°). No serious complications were observed.
Conclusions:
Elbow arthrolysis represents a successfull procedure which returns a patient to common everyday activities. Medial surgical approach is prefered in most cases.
KEY WORDS:
elbow joint, rigidity, arthrolysis.
