Simultaneous Ipsilateral Fracture of the Elbow, Forearm and Wrist in a Child

摘要

The simultaneous occurrence of ipsilateral humeral supracondylar, forearm and wrist fractures is an uncommon injury. This fracture pattern is very difficult to treat, but no detailed cases were found in the English literature. A case of this unusual combination in a teenager is reported, successfully managed by open reduction and Kirschner wire (K–wire) fixation of the elbow fracture with open reduction of the forearm fractures and fixation with long intramedullary K–wires.
