Static Stability of Elbow Interposition Arthroplasty Stabilized With Novel Ligament Reconstruction
Cadaveric elbow specimens underwent interposition arthroplasty with a novel technique for bidirectional ligament reconstruction. Static stability was maintained at varying degrees of elbow flexion, comparable to that of the native elbow. Interposition and ligament reconstruction grafts maintained secure fixation following static biomechanical testing.
