Involvement of the proximal radial ulnar joint in partial radial head fractures: a novel three-dimensional computed tomography scan evaluation method

摘要

Partial radial head fractures (PRHF) can involve the proximal radioulnar joint (PRUJ) or be restricted to the ‘safe zone’ (SZ) during forearm rotation. The objective of the present study was to develop an assessment method for PRUJ involvement in radial head fractures using axial computed tomography (CT) scans.
