Clinical trials: Distal Humerus Fracture
Elbow Fracture
Radiation Therapy for Heterotopic Ossification Prophylaxis Acutely After Elbow Trauma
The investigators hypothesized that radiation therapy could be safely administered acutely after elbow trauma, and it would decrease the number of patients that would require surgical excision of heterotopic ossification.

Can Secondary Total Elbow Arthroplasty After Failed Internal Fixation or Non-operative Treatment of Distal Humeral Fractures Achieve Equal Results as Primary Arthroplasty?
Total elbow arthroplasty (TEA) results in immediate pain release with good functional results after distal humerus fractures. But still open reduction and internal fixation is recommended as treatment of choise due to a lifelong…
