Letter to the Editor regarding Hackl et al: “Rare implant-specific complications of the MoPyC radial head prosthesis”
It was with great interest that we read the article “Rare implant-specific complications of the MoPyC radial head prosthesis” by Hackl et al.6 The MoPyC implant (Tornier [Bioprofile], Montbonnot-Saint-Martin, France) is a monopolar, press-fit radial head prosthesis that obtains fixation via auto-expansion of its stem; this implant design is not c urrently available for use in the United States. Although functional outcomes are promising, the description and analysis of the complications of MoPyC implants in the literature are scarce.
