Figure 3 Radial head resection X-raysA lateral and anteroposterior X-ray of the left elbow is shown, taken after the resection of the radial head fragments. The red and blue arrows in both views indicate the remaining articular space, where only the radial neck with a sagittal oblique cut is visible. This allows for an assessment of the size that would be considered for the temporary radial head.
