Journal Title: International Journal of Bone and Rheumatology Research (IJBRR) - Year 2017, Vol 4, Issue 1
Abstract
Floating dislocated elbow is an extremely rare injury, only a few cases were reported. We present here a case of the constellation of skeletal trauma which associates a proximal humerus fracture, distal radius fracture and elbow islocation. Through the literature review we will include clinical, radiological, therapeutic and functional results of this injury.
