The combination of a radial diaphysis fracture and ipsilateral elbow dislocation is a rare lesion. Only a few similar cases have been reported in the literature. Such injuries need a concentric reduction of the dislocation and an anatomical fixation of the radius for optimal functional outcomes. The radial fracture and ipsilateral dislocation of the elbow were probably caused by forearm hypersupination with extension of the elbow. Closed reduction of the elbow and operative stabilization of radial fracture were done with good clinical, radiological and functional outcomes in 8 months follow-up period. We discuss through a clinical case of a radial shaft fracture unusually associated with postero-lateral elbow dislocation and through a review of the literature the clinical aspects, the mechanism, treatment and the evolving profile of this particular lesion. |
