    Abstract Patients with elbow arthritis typically present with complaints of pain and stiffness. Rheumatoid arthritis is the most common cause of elbow arthritis, followed by posttraumatic arthritis and primary osteoarthritis. Nonoperative management consisting of oral analgesics, intra-articular steroid injections, physical therapy, and splinting may provide symptomatic relief in the majority of patients. If these modalities fail, operative treatment is guided by the severity of disease as well as several patient-related factors such as age, activity level, and expectations. Total elbow arthroplasty can provide satisfactory results in the majority of patients with significant degeneration of the elbow. However, due to issues regarding prosthesis longevity, this procedure is generally avoided in young active patients. Other operative treatment options for such patients include arthroscopic or open synovectomy, debridement arthroplasty, and interpositional arthroplasty. As all of these operations may provide a satisfactory outcome for the appropriate patient, a thorough preoperative evaluation is essential in choosing the suitable surgical procedure for each individual patient.

    Abstract Objective: To compare the efficacy of anesthetic type on clinical outcomes after operative treatment of distal radius fractures.
    Design: Retrospective review of prospectively collected data.
    Setting: Academic medical center.
    Patients: One hundred eighty-seven patients with a distal radius fracture (OTA type 23) were identified within a registry of 600 patients.
    Intervention: Patients with operative distal radius fractures underwent open reduction and internal fixation with a volarly applied plate and screws under regional or general anesthesia.
    Main outcome measurements: Clinical, radiographic, and patient-based functional outcomes were recorded at routine postoperative intervals. Complications were recorded.
    Results: One hundred eighty-seven patients met inclusion criteria and had a minimum of 1-year follow-up. There were no differences between the groups with regard to patient demographics or fracture types treated. At both 3 and 6 months post surgery, pain was diminished among those patients who received a regional block. Wrist and finger range of motion for patients who received regional versus general anesthesia was improved at all follow-up points. Patients who received regional anesthesia also had higher functional scores as measured by the Disabilities of the Arm, Shoulder and Hand at 3 months (P = 0.04) and 6 months (P = 0.02).
    Conclusion: Patients who are candidates should be offered regional anesthesia when undergoing repair of a displaced distal radius fracture.
    Level of evidence: Therapeutic Level III. See Instructions for Authors for a complete description of levels of evidence.
