Diagnosis
Posterior elbow dislocation
Sample Report
Posterior elbow dislocation.
Semicircular ossific fragment along the posteromedial aspect of the distal humerus likely represents an avulsed medial epicondyle.
Irregularity along the posterior lip of the olecranon and involving the coronoid process raises concern for additional minimally displaced fractures.
