Outcomes of semiconstrained total elbow arthroplasty performed for arthritis in patients under 55 years old

Total elbow arthroplasty (TEA) is a treatment option for end-stage arthritis. Even though results are satisfactory for the elderly population, TEA surgery is subject to controversy in younger patients. The purpose of this study was to evaluate clinical and radiographic outcomes of semiconstrained TEA performed for arthritis in patients younger than 55 years.
