Abstract

INTRODUCTION

Recent literature shows an increased mean age of female patients with radial head fractures compared with male patients with radial head fractures. However, data on epidemiology of radial head fractures and specifically in relation to age distribution and male-female ratios of radial head fracture are scarce.

MATERIALS AND METHODS

A retrospective database search was performed to identify all patients with a radial head fracture over a 3-year period.

RESULTS

A total of 328 radial head fractures were diagnosed in 322 patients. The incidence was 2.8 per 10,000 inhabitants per year. The male-female ratio was 2:3. The mean age was 48.0 years (range, 14-88 years; SD, 14.8). The mean age of female patients (52.8 years) was significantly higher than that of male patients (40.5 years) (P = .001). As the age increases above 50 years, the number of female patients becomes significantly higher than the number of male patients (P = .001). An associated osseous injury was present in 40 patients (12.4%).

CONCLUSIONS

Radial head fractures are common, and associated injuries are frequent.

摘要

简介

最近的文献表明，与男性桡骨头骨折患者相比，女性桡骨头骨折患者的平均年龄有所增加。然而，关于桡骨头骨折的流行病学，特别是关于年龄分布和男女桡骨头骨折比例的数据还很缺乏。

材料与方法

对 3 年内所有桡骨头骨折患者进行了回顾性数据库检索。

结果

共诊断出 322 例患者的 328 例桡骨头骨折。发病率为每 10,000 居民 2.8 例。男女比例为 2:3。平均年龄为 48.0 岁（范围 14-88 岁；SD 14.8）。女性患者（52.8 岁）的平均年龄明显高于男性患者（40.5 岁）（P =.001）。随着年龄超过 50 岁，女性患者的数量明显高于男性患者（P =.001）。40 名患者（12.4%）存在相关的骨损伤。
