Abstract Terrible triad of the elbow are a part of rare complex injury around elbow and consists of posterior dislocation combined with the fractures of the radial head and coronoid process of the ulna. Variable outcome has been reported in such injuries, we report a case of a 44-year-old man presenting with bilateral terrible triad of the elbow joints injured due to fall from height. Our surgical procedure included fixation of the radial head through a lateral approach on one side and excision of fractured fragment on another along with lateral collateral ligament (LCL) repair bilaterally, also fixation of the coronoid process and repair of medial collateral ligament (MCL) done on both sides through an anteromedial incision. Bone union was achieved 3 months after surgery. Patient resumed his routine activities at end of 5 months with good functional outcome.

A 23-year-old woman who had an episode of elbow injury which was treated cast immobilisation in childhood with residual cubitus varus sustained a posterior fracture dislocation of the same elbow. She was treated with closed reduction. Six months later, however, her elbow became stiff, and a persistent posterolateral rotatory subluxation was noted. Operations were performed in two steps; first, the radial head, which was subluxed posteriorly, was reduced and the lateral collateral ligament complex was reconstructed, and second, the stiff elbow was mobilised. Two years after the first surgery, the function of the elbow was satisfactorily recovered.

Introduction Digital collateral ligament injuries are common hand injuries that can cause significant pain and functional impairment. Ultrasonography can be useful in the evaluation of these ligamentous injuries, as it is both cost-effective and allows for easy, dynamic evaluation during imaging. Case report We report a rare sonographic finding of an index finger radial collateral ligament injury that was found to have a flap of the ligament entrapped within the metacarpophalangeal joint, which to our knowledge has not been described previously. We correlate this finding with an intraoperative image of the entrapment of the collateral ligament. We also report on the novel application of superb microvascular imaging to aid in the diagnosis of digital collateral ligament injury. Discussion This particular injury pattern has not been reported in the literature previously and likely explains the patient’s lack of improvement with nonoperative management. Our finding is similar to a Stener lesion seen in a thumb ulnar collateral ligament injury in which the ligament is unable to heal due to entrapment. In addition, using superb microvascular imaging (SMI), we were able to visualize hyperemia to surrounding structures and the ligament itself which suggested an acute injury. Conclusion We anticipate that this case report will provide sonographers with knowledge and images of this specific injury pattern to the digital collateral ligaments.
