Nineteen Wadsworth elbow prostheses were inserted in 15 patients with rheumatoid arthritis during the 4 years 1979–1982. The patients were followed prospectively for an average of 5.7 years. Five elbows were revised because of mechanical loosening and one because of deep infection. Of the remaining 13 prostheses, there were radiographic signs of loosening in 8 cases.Downloads
