Abstract

1. 1. The method for reduction of posterior dislocation of the elbow joint, as advocated by Lavine, has been found to be successful, expedient and simple to perform, is atraumatic, and requires neither anesthesia nor assistance. 2. 2. A case of posterior dislocation of the elbow joint in a football player, with complete recovery and rehabilitation within thirty days, is presented. 3. 3. A method of adhesive strapping of the elbow joint for athletes which affords satisfactory protection and at the same time allows maximum function is described. 4. 4. Evidence is presented that early and atraumatic reduction, which reduces hemorrhage and edema to a minimum, is an important factor in the prevention of traumatic myositis ossificans.
