Abstract EN
Radio-ulnar Fracture dislocation of the elbow is a high-energy trauma which can be associated with significant ligamentous injury in adults.
We report an unusual triad of injury in a patient with avulsion injury of the triceps.
This injury can be thought of as a variant of “terrible triad” with dislocation of radio-ulnar joint, radial head fracture, and medial collateral ligament injury with avulsion of the triceps.
Elbow has to be stabilized with early repair of the ligaments for a successful outcome.
