Radial Head Fixation: Tripod Screw Technique

Study Radial Head Fixation: Tripod Screw Technique through an immersive first-person surgical case from the Bone Reconstruction channel on Surgie. The module focuses on fixation of the radial head while preserving vascularity, tripod technique with double-compression screws (2.4 mm), and reinsertion of the anterior joint capsule with a metallic anchor.

Procedure Overview

The case is organized for structured review of surgical anatomy, procedural sequencing, instrument handling, reduction or reconstruction strategy, implant positioning, and intraoperative verification. Expert narration connects the visual field with the decisions documented during the procedure.
