Implication

Case report details injury mechanism and treatment of rare elbow fracture-dislocation in a child, emphasizing stability restoration.

Key Points

  • Successful treatment of a rare pediatric posterior trans-olecranon fracture-dislocation of the elbow improved the child's outcome.
  • Elbow joint stability was restored following open reduction and internal fixation, leading to normal range of motion.
  • The injury resulted from a fall, leading to multiple fractures and dislocation, which were diagnosed through radiography.
  • At one-year follow-up, the elbow joints appeared anatomically normal with no functional differences between sides.
