Zusammenfassung

Der Radiuskopf nimmt für die funktionelle Anatomie von Ellenbogen und Unterarm eine zentrale Rolle ein. Er stellt neben den Seitenbändern und dem Processus coronoideus einen wichtigen Stabilisator des Ellenbogengelenks dar. Entsprechend der Bedeutung des Radiuskopfs für die Funktion des Ellenbogengelenks ist eine differenzierte Therapie der Radiuskopffraktur unabdingbar. In diesem Artikel sollen sowohl Diagnostik als auch Klassifikation der Radiuskopffraktur, Behandlungsalgorithmen und Techniken der Rekonstruktion in Abhängigkeit der Frakturmorphologie dargestellt werden.

Abstract

The radial head is pivotal in the functional anatomy of the elbow and forearm. It is an important stabiliser, together with the collateral ligaments and the processus coronoideus. Due to the pivotal importance, optimal therapies are essential for the function of elbow and forearm, independently of trauma severity. The present article presents current diagnostic testing, classifications and treatment options for radial head fractures.
