BACKGROUND: Patients missing the distal humeral condyles are prone to premature bushing wear after total elbow arthroplasty. A midterm study has demonstrated that a custom triflange outrigger ulnar component was successful in preventing this. The aim of this study was to determine whether these results remained stable over time.
MATERIALS AND METHODS: The outcomes of 6 patients who underwent revision of a loose ulnar component using a custom triflange outrigger component were reviewed in this retrospective case study. The average patient age at the time of revision was 51. The average number of prior operations was 2 (range, 1-3). The mean follow-up was 15 years (range, 10-18 years).
RESULTS: At final follow-up, the mean range of extension-flexion was 35° to 135°, and pronation-supination was 65° to 63°. The average Mayo Elbow Performance Score improved to 75 of 100. Four implants were still in place with no radiolucencies or osteolysis. Three patients required revision surgery for broken humeral stems. Two required conversion to another total elbow arthroplasty system after 18 and 14 years for humeral component loosening.
CONCLUSIONS: These components lasted an average of 4 times longer than the original ulnar components. In our experience, periarticular osteolysis caused by polyethylene wear creates a region of unsupported stem and a stress riser at the junction with the remaining well-supported stem and causes component stem fractures. The concept of an outrigger type of hinge might be useful for active patients requiring an elbow prosthesis in the setting of deficient condyles.
