Abstrakt: | Isolated traumatic dislocation of the radial head in children is not as rare as sometimes supposed. Attention to detail in radiographic interpretation is the key to diagnosis. Early closed reduction and immobilisation in an above-elbow plaster in 90 degrees of flexion and full supination for three to six weeks is recommended. Seven cases are presented, two of which were treated operatively and had unsatisfactory results. The applied anatomy, management and complications are discussed. |
