Summary: | Trans-olecranial fracture-dislocations are a rare entity of elbow fracture-luxations in children and the literature is poor in recommendations for their management. It is a complex lesion that can compromise the functional prognosis of the elbow[7].

We report an observation with a lesion that is rarely described in the literature. |
