Etiology The underlying abnormality is hypothesized to be failure of development of a normal capitulum, causing loss of contact pressure required for normal development of the radial head. [radiopaedia.org]

Regardless of the etiology, radial head dislocation causes rather mild deformity and lameness and can be treated by conservative management, surgical correction, or radial head ostectomy. [ncbi.nlm.nih.gov]

Other congenital anomalies or a familial history of similar anomalies help confirm this as an etiology. [clinicalgate.com]
