Concomitant ulecranon fracture, ipsilateral segmental humerus fracture and intercondylar humerus fracture in a 4-year-old girl: an extremely rare case report and literature review
Abstract
T-condylar fracture of distal humerus in young children is very rare. Pure physeal fractures of the olecranon are also rare. We report on an extremely rare case of concomitant ulecranon fracture, ipsilateral segmental humerus and intercondylar humerus fracture (type III) in a skeletally immature patient.
Keywords: Elbow Fractures; Humerus Fracture; Iran; Pediatric Trauma; Upper Extremity.
