  • Title: Compound elbow dislocation and brachial artery rupture.
    Author: Fleischer G, Fletcher JP, Whiteway DW.
    Journal: Aust N Z J Surg; 1980 Aug; 50(4):408-9. PubMed ID: 6932856.
    Abstract:
    A case of brachial artery rupture following compound dislocation of the elbow is reported. Arterial injury is a well-known complication of a supracondylar fracture of the humerus, but is very rare in association with elbow dislocation. A reversed saphenous vein graft was used for treatment of the arterial injury and is the recommended method of management.
