[Fractures of the upper end of radius and ulna and recent dislocations of the elbow in children].
In this report concerned with luxation of the elbow and fractures of the upper end of two forearm bones in children emphasis is placed on the importance of the initial treatment, since sequelae are not corrected during growth. Correct therapy requires firstly a precise diagnosis, this depending on the obtaining of images of very good quality, if necessary taken during sleep if the child has to be anesthetized. Therapy should be as atraumatic as possible, particularly in the region of the head of radius, to avoid its subsequent necrosis.
