Endoscopic anterior capsulectomy for severe elbow contractures.
Journal of ISAKOS 2024 Februrary 18
Elbow stiffness secondary to trauma or surgical reconstruction can sometimes result in a severe contracture with restricted joint space, and arthroscopic access to the joint is difficult. Previous surgery and severe stiffness can also alter the position of neurovascular structures and iatrogenic injury is possible with an inside-out arthroscopic approach. To overcome these technical difficulties, an endoscopic approach to the anterior capsule can be performed as an alternative to open approach. The endoscopic approach utilizes the sub-brachialis space for an outside-in capsular resection under vision. Identification of standard anatomic landmarks is useful as a guide for safe resection in a central to peripheral direction.
