We report the 9 year follow-up results of treatment of a 5 year-old boy with bilateral congenital radial head dislocation by open reduction of the radial head and ulnar osteotomy with annular ligament reconstruction and discuss the management of this condition.

Objective: To determine containment of radial head after ulnar osteotomy in chronic Monteggia fractures. Study Design: Retrospective study. Setting: Children Hospital and The Institute of Child Health, Lahore. Period: 2019 to January 2020. Material & Methods: Ten patients presented in outdoor patient department with a diagnosis of chronic Monteggia fracture. Four patients were labelled as missed Monteggia fractures, four with late presented Monteggia fractures and two with inadequately treated Monteggia fractures. Bado and Letts classifications were applied for patients. Mean age was 6 years and 8 months and ranged from 4 to 10 years. Mean time interval between injury and admission was 6.1 months. Open reduction of radial head and ulnar osteotomy was done through Boyed approach. Transcapitellar wire was inserted temporarily and then removed so it is not required permanently. The ulnar osteotomy was angulated opposite to the direction of radial head dislocation and fixed with plate and screws. Results: 10 patients were included in this study. The age range was between 4 and 10 years. The study period was six months and follow up was one year. Mean ulnar angulation at osteotomy site was 21.3° (16-25°). Mean ulnar lengthening at osteotomy site was 0.85 cm (0.5-1.8 cm).Improvement in flexion-extension was 20.3%, pronation was 5.1% and supination was 13.7%. Complications included were nounion in 1 case and cubitus valgus in 1 case. Conclusion: Containment of radial head is obtained by open reduction of radial head and with ulnar osteotomy in chronic Monteggia fractures. Annular ligament reconstruction and transcapitellar wire insertion are not required if proper angulation and fixation of ulnar osteotomy is performed. No age limit for this procedure but surgery should be performed before radial head deformation.

AbstractIrreducible dislocation of the radial head is an extremely rare lesion, especially in an adult patient. We present a case of diaphyseal radius fracture associated with a posterior elbow dislocation and an irreducible radial head dislocation. After closed reduction of the elbow, we performed open reduction and ostheosynthesis of the radius, and the radial head remained irreducible. We finally found, surrounding the radius, the interposition of the insertion of the biceps, and, after extracting it, we performed the correct reduction of the radial head. Six months after the surgery, the patient presented a full articular balance, with no pain. We have not found any similar case in the literature.
