[Transitory lesion of the radial nerve after fall onto the outstretched arm].
A patient presented with a bony avulsion of the radial collateral ligament of the elbow combined with a partial lesion of the radial nerve after a fall onto the outstretched arm. Probably the nerve was compressed at its penetration through the lateral intermuscular septum by a sudden contraction of the triceps tendon. Conservative treatment led to complete recovery.
