Article Biepicondylar Fracture Presenting With Elbow Dislocation: a Case Report(2012) Guner, S.; Guner, S.I.; Ceylan, M.F.; Gormeli, G.; Gormeli, C.A.; Onder, H.Introduction. Biepicondylar fracture of the elbow is very rare, and to date there have only been three reports of this injury and its treatment in the English scientific literature. This case report evaluates the surgical internal fixation of a biepicondylar fracture of the elbow with an associated dislocation. Case presentation. We report the case of a 15-year-old Turkish girl with a biepicondylar fracture dislocation of the left elbow. Open reduction and an internal fixation operation were applied. There were no complications. Conclusion: In these injuries, open reduction and internal fixation appear to be a good method to restore elbow stability and function. © 2012 Guner et al.; licensee BioMed Central Ltd.
