We present a rare case of entrapment of the median nerve between sublimis tendons after fractures of the distal radius and ulna in an 80-year-old woman. The entrapped median nerve was elongated redundantly with two regions of constriction. To our knowledge, no case of median nerve palsy caused by such a factor has been previously reported.

A case of volar and ulnar solitary dislocation of the scaphoid of the right hand associated with type 3 Monteggia fracture dislocation (Bado) of the same limb is reported. It was complicated by median nerve palsy which was masked by the compartment syndrome of the forearm. He was treated with open reduction, internal fixation and decompression of the median nerve. The functional result is good. Solitary dislocation of the scaphoid is a very rare carpal bone injury. Isolated case reports were published in the past. However, it was complicated with median nerve palsy and masked by the compartment syndrome of the forearm that had never been described.

Monteggia fractures are rare in children, and subtle radial head dislocations, with minor plastic deformation of the ulna, may be missed in up to a third of cases. Complications of Monteggia fractures-dislocations include persistent radial head dislocation, forearm deformity, elbow stiffness, and nerve palsies at the time of presentation. An unusual case of median nerve palsy following elastic stable intramedullary nailing of a type I Monteggia lesion in a 6-year-old girl is presented, and we highlight that, although most nerve palsies associated with a Monteggia fracture-dislocations are treated expectantly in children, early intervention here probably provided the best outcome.
