SECEC Mason type II Radial Head Fractures Study

The SECEC Mason type II RHF study is a prospective, observational study of patients diagnosed with Mason type II radial head fractures treated conservatively (immobilization and early rehabilitation) or surgically (non-randomized) with the following inclusion criteria :
- isolated radial head or neck fractures type II determined by RX and CT scan
- absence of previous dislocations or ulnar fractures other than coronoid type I.
Its primary objective is to evaluate whether the anatomical location of Mason type II radial head fractures influences medium-term functional outcomes in patients treated conservatively and surgically.
