520 3 |a Purpose: The purpose of this study was to determine the anatomic relationship between the radial head and the lateral collateral ligament (LCL) and when the LCL would be at risk of iatrogenic injury during arthroscopic resection of the synovial fold. Methods: Thirty-four formalin-fixed upper extremities were dissected. A projection of the LCL onto the radial head was marked with a needle. The percentage of the posterior border of the radial head overlaid by the LCL was digitally measured. A portion of the projection of the LCL was statistically correlated with the overall diameter of the radial head. Results: The overall diameter of the radial head was 21.2mm±2.3. The proportionate projection of the medial border of the LCL onto the radial head was 5.3±1.6mm on average. The lateral 25% of the radial head was overlaid by the LCL with a maximum value of 40% on average. The inter- and intraobserver reliability showed very good accordance with the digital measurements (r>0.8). Conclusion: Care must be taken when performing a resection in the lateral 40% of the radial head, whereas resection in the medial 60% of the radial head appears to be safe. The LCL is an important stabiliser of the elbow joint, a lesion of which by undeliberate arthroscopic dissection may lead to joint instability. Iatrogenic injury to the LCL presumably can be prevented when respecting the given data. Level of evidence: Experimental study.
