Abstract
Monteggia fractures are uncommon injuries, despite a high incidence of upper limb fractures in teenage children. We describe a case of a type 2 Monteggia variant in an adolescent. This injury pattern consisted of ulnohumeral dislocation in combination with type 2 Monteggia lesion. We discuss the possible injury mechanisms of this rare injury and review available literature.
