Thirty-two fixed cadaveric elbow specimens from an elderly population were examined photographically after staining of the articular cartilage. The photographic images of the articular wear areas observed were calibrated and superimposed to determine the overall pattern of articular wear in the elbow. In this group, the radiohumeral compartment showed the most frequent degenerative changes. A pattern of involvement could have been identified, proceeding from the posteromedial region of the radial head and the apex of the capitellum. Eventually, the entire lateral compartment is involved, but in most specimens examined the ulnohumeral and radioulnar articulations are preserved.
对32个来自老年人群的固定尸体肘部标本的关节软骨进行染色后进行拍照检查。对观察到的关节磨损区域的照片图像进行校准和叠加，以确定肘部关节磨损的总体模式。在这组标本中，桡肱关节间室显示出最常见的退行性改变。可以确定一种受累模式，从桡骨头的后内侧区域和肱骨小头的顶点开始。最终，整个外侧关节间室都会受累，但在大多数检查的标本中，尺肱关节和桡尺关节保持完好。
