[Modified profiles of the elbow in traumatology. The value of the radial head-capitellum view and a new coronoid-trochlea view].
2 modified lateral views of the elbow are described. They are accomplished by angling the tube 45 degrees cranially and ventrally, parallel to the arm. The first view, recently reported, shows the radial head and capitellum, free of overlap of other bones. The second view, first reported here, demonstrates well the coronoid and the trochlea. Some representative case reports are exposed. The usefulness of these view is discussed.
