  • Title: Irreducible elbow dislocation associated with a radial neck fracture: a case report.
    Author: Charitides J, Kitsis C, Tsakonas A.
    Journal: Acta Orthop Belg; 2001 Oct; 67(4):395-8. PubMed ID: 11725573.
    Abstract:
    A rare case of an irreducible elbow dislocation is described. We discuss the causes of irreducibility and the treatment options. Intraoperative assessment of joint stability, repair of the lateral collateral ligament and appropriate postoperative management led to an excellent 5-year outcome, obviating the need for an external fixator or a radial head replacement.
