After a fairly long experience we asked ourselves what value should be attributed to replacement surgery of the head of the radius, using a Silastic endoprosthesis? An attempt is made to answer this question after following up our cases for many years. This has led us to two factual conclusions; the limited life of the prosthesis and the surprising tolerance of the elbow to regressive radiographic changes.
在积累了相当长的经验之后，我们不禁自问，使用硅橡胶假体进行桡骨头置换手术的价值究竟何在？在对我们的病例进行多年随访之后，我们试图回答这个问题。这使我们得出了两个实际结论：假体寿命有限，以及肘部对退行性影像学改变令人惊讶的耐受性。
