  • Title: Distal humerus lateral condyle fracture and Monteggia lesion in a 3-year old child: a case report.
    Author: Dattani R, Patnaik S, Kantak A, Lal M.
    Journal: Acta Orthop Belg; 2008 Aug; 74(4):542-5. PubMed ID: 18811042.
    Abstract:
    We describe a case of a Monteggia fracture dislocation and an ipsilateral lateral humeral condyle fracture in a 3-year-old child. This is a rare combination of injuries with no previously reported cases in the literature. This case emphasises that when a fracture is detected around an elbow there should be a high index of suspicion for other injuries in the region.
