We report the use of a new approach for elbow arthroplasty in 58 cases over a 20-year period. A wide exposure, obtained by elevating the triceps attachment and dividing the radial collateral ligament, allows the excision of diseased tissue, articular irregularities and osteophytes. Normal anatomy is restored and active mobilisation can be started 10 days after operation. Good or fair results, with over 70 degrees of joint movement, were achieved in 88% of cases.
