Abstract

The Monteggia fracture-dislocation is defined as the fracture of the proximal ulna accompanied with dislocation of radial head and classified in four major types and various equivalent lesions. Anterior dislocation of radial head concomitant with plastic deformation of ulna is defined ad Monteggia type 1 equivalent lesion. These injuries can be missed at initial presentation if a careful physical examination together with a prompt radiologic assesment is not performed. In this report, we present a case with Monteggia type I equivalent lesion with ipsilaeral distal humerus fracture, and discuss its clinical and radiologic chacteristics to avoid misdiagnosis in the ED.

Özet

Monteggia kırıklı-çıkığı, ulna diyafiz kırığı ile birlikte radiohumeral eklem çıkığı olarak tanımlanmış ve dört ana tip ve çeşitli eşdeğer yaralanmalar olarak sınıflandırılmıştır. Radius başının anterior çıkığı ve ulnada plastik deformasyon Monteggia tip 1 eşdeğer yaralanma olarak tariflenmiştir. Monteggia tip 1 eşdeğer yaralanmalar, dikkatli bir muayene ile birlikte yeterli ve doğru radyolojik değerlendirmenin yapılmadığı durumlarda atlanabilir. Bu yazıda, Monteggia tip 1 eşdeğer yaralanma ile distal humerus kırığının birlikte görüldüğü nadir bir olgu sunularak, acil serviste tanıda dikkat edilecek klinik ve radyolojik özellikler tartışılmıştır.
