title: The 'upside-down' radial head: a diagnostic challenge.
abstract: The author describes a rare, traumatic dislocation of the radial head in an 8 year old girl. Only four similar cases were found in the literature. The danger of misdiagnosis and the life-long disability can be avoided by careful examination of the post-reduction radiograph.
