title: Type-I monteggia with ipsilateral fracture of distal radius epiphyseal injury: A rare case report.
abstract: Simultaneous Monteggia injuries of the elbow and ipsilateral fracture distal radius with epiphyseal injury both bone are a unique case. A unique case of a Type I Monteggia fracture equivalent with ipsilateral fracture distal radius with epiphyseal injury (Salter-Harris Type II) in a child is reported. We describe the management of this unique fracture and discuss the possible mechanism of injury. We have highlighted a rare combination of injuries. Early recognition and prompt surgical intervention can lead to a satisfactory outcome even in these complex injuries. Résumé Les traumatismes de Monteggia simultanés du coude et le rayon distal de fracture ipsilatérale avec lésion épiphysaire des deux os sont un cas unique. Un cas unique d'une fracture de Monteggia de type I avec un rayon distal de fracture ipsilatérale avec lésion épiphysaire (Salter-Harris Type II) chez un enfant est rapporté. Nous décrivons la gestion de cette fracture unique et discuter du mécanisme possible de la blessure. Nous avons mis en évidence une combinaison rare de blessures. Une reconnaissance précoce et une intervention chirurgicale rapide peuvent conduire à un résultat satisfaisant même dans ces blessures complexes.
