Surgical approaches for total elbow arthroplasty (TEA) are broadly divided into two groups;  triceps-off and  triceps-on approaches. Traditional  triceps-off approaches provide excellent visualization for TEA; however, they carry a risk of triceps failure and require triceps protecting rehabilitation protocols.
