The aim of this retrospective study was to undertake a comparative evaluation of the Evolve modular metallic radial head implant prosthesis and the MoPyC pyrocarbon prosthesis in acute care. Seventyfive patients having a comminuted radial head fracture with an Evolve prosthesis (=G1) and 11 with a MoPyC prosthesis (=G2) were available for a follow-up. Postoperative patient outcomes were evaluated according to a standardized follow-up protocol which included the Morrey rating system. Assessment criteria were range of motion (ROM), functional scores, and rate of complications. G1 showed a mean Morrey score of 86 points. Four direct prosthesis complications were observed in this group (n=75). The average achieved Morrey score in G2 was 84 points. In this group (n=11), 2 direct prosthesis complications were diagnosed. The average range of motion did not differ greatly between both groups. Radial head replacement with either prosthesis yielded sufficient to satisfactory results in a mid-term perspective regarding the range of motion and function of the elbow joint when performed in carefully selected patients. The Evolve Prothesis appears to show a slightly lower rate of complication by way of a similar functional outcome.
