Tripod Technique: Radial Head Fixation








Tripod Technique: Radial Head Fixation
Elbow instability following radial head fractures with coronoid avulsion represents a frequent challenge.
This training presents the tripod technique using double-compression screws and capsular reinsertion with a metallic anchor, in a 4K video from a surgical perspective—allowing every technical detail to be understood and applied safely in practice.
Training Focus:
- Osteosynthesis of the radial head while preserving vascularity
- Tripod technique with double-compression screws (2.4 mm)
- Reinsertion of the anterior joint capsule with a metallic anchor
- Lateral ligament reconstruction and anatomical closure
- Intraoperative stability tests and early mobilization
Detailed Content:
- Precise Reduction: Periosteum preservation to maintain vascularity
- Secure Fixation: Buried screws at a 45° biomechanical angle
- Joint Stability: Capsular reinsertion with a 5 mm metallic anchor
- Tissue Preservation: Optimized lateral approach through the Kaplan interval
- Postoperative Mobility: Planning for early motion without risk of instability
- Complication Control: Techniques to prevent loss of alignment and biomechanical failure
- 4K Visualization: Surgical steps recorded in high definition
- Critical Commentary: Analysis of intraoperative decisions by the surgeon
Material Included:
