Resumen (ES)
Diaphyseal fractures of the radius with posterolateral dislocation of the ipsilateral elbow are a rare entity with low
frequency. The objective of this study was to analyze the diagnosis, treatment and follow-up of these patients and to
review the cases described in the literature. We present 3 patients with this association operated on in our centre. The
treatment of the dislocation in all three patients was closed. One patient required an external fixator due to a diaphyseal
fracture of the humerus. An open reduction with internal fixation of the radius was performed in all three patients using an
LCP-type locked plate. Two patients had complete recovery of mobility, and the last patient required arthrolysis of the
elbow due to significant limitation in mobility. It is important to determine the stability of the elbow after reducing the
dislocation, and perform an early treatment of the radius to try to reduce the time of immobilisation.
