Abstract

Traumatic separation of the distal humeral epiphysis during delivery is an uncommon injury in neonates and usually mimics elbow dislocation. Emergency medicine physicians and orthopedic surgeons must have a high index of suspicion for distal humeral epiphysis separation when evaluating elbow trauma in neonates. Magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) scan is an important diagnostic tool for this purpose. We report a case in which fracture-separation of the distal humeral epiphysis in a newborn was diagnosed with the help of ultrasonography and MRI scan, which provided a clear delineation of the injury.

Özet

Doğum travmasına bağlı meydana gelen distal humerus epifiz ayrılması oldukça seyrek görülen bir durumdur ve sıklıkla dirsek ekleminin arkaya çıkığı ile karıştırılır. Acil tıp ve ortopedi doktorları, yenidoğanlardaki dirsek travmalarını değerlendirirken distal humerus epifiz ayrılması konusunda son derece dikkatli davranmalıdırlar. Manyetik rezonans görüntüleme (MRG) ayırıcı tanıda önemli yer tutar. Bu yazıda, yenidoğanda ultrasonografi ve MRG tekniklerinden yararlanarak distal humerus epifiz ayrılmasının tam olarak görüntülenmesi ve orta dönem cerrahi sonucunun verilmesi amaçlandı.
