[RESEARCH PROGRESS OF COMPLICATIONS ASSOCIATED WITH OPEN ELBOW ARTHROLYSIS]
Objective:
To review the research progress of complications associated with open elbow arthrolysis so as to provide clinical reference for complication prevention and treatment.
Methods:
The recent publications on open elbow arthrolysis and complications associated with it were extensively reviewed and analyzed.
Results:
Complications associated with open elbow arthrolysis include ulnar nerve symptom and neuropathy, elbow instability, heterotopic ossification, and hematoma. Although some progress has been made in the complication prevention and treatment recently, there are still some challenges in the control of surgical trauma, intervention of heterotopic ossification and elbow instability after surgery, as well as postoperative analgesia due to the limitation of surgical techniques and the uncertain mechanism of these complications.
Conclusion:
Open elbow arthrolysis is safe and effective for elbow stiffness. However, more research on the mechanism of complications should be carried out, to further improve the overall effect of the surgery.
