Key Developments
Increasing research and developments related to radial head resection implants is expected to boost the market growth. For instance, in June 2019, researchers from Soonchunhyang University Cheonan Hospital evaluated the clinical and radiographic results of patients who sustained non-reconstructible radial head fractures that subsequently were treated with a metallic press-fit radial head prosthesis (RHP) and found that use of a metallic press-fit RHP for nonreconstructible radial head fractures offers satisfactory outcomes.
In February 2019, a study by Johannes Gutenberg University of Mainz evaluated elbow function and patient clinical status after internal fixation of complex radial head and neck fractures with modern locking plates and found that complex radial head and neck fractures fixed with modern locking plates and treated as an osseoligamentous lesion exhibited potential midterm results.
However, treatment with radial head arthroplasty is also associated with less inclination to physical activity post treatment. For instance, in June 2019, the study by University of Heidelberg found that the return-to-sports rate after radial head replacement is low.
