Abstract
Isolated dislocations of the radial head in children without fracture of the ulna are an extremely rare injury. The diagnosis is easily missed. This leads to permanent deformity of the elbow; on the other hand prompt treatment restores a normal anatomical and functional elbow. Fourteen patients and their long-term outcome are presented.
