Abstract:
Isolated radial head dislocation, without an associated fracture of the ulna in adult, is rare. Two cases which can be thought as old unreduced isolated radial head dislocation were experienced in this hospital. Dislocated radial heads have not been reduced, however the cases revealed normal elbow motion including pronation and supination. We report these cases with a review of the literature.
