Post-traumatic posterior radial head subluxation. Two case reports.
Two women, 33 and 55 years of age, with post-traumatic posterior radial head dislocation were treated by open reduction. Normal apposition of the radius to the capitellum was achieved. Although excellent range of motion was restored in both patients, the possibility of post-traumatic arthritis must be determined by long-term follow-up observations.
