Elbow Fractures with Carpal InjuriesFrom St Vincents Hospital and the Meath Hospital, Dublin, Ireland Correspondence: I. Callanan, FRCSI, 16 Temple Park Ave, Blackrock, Co. Dublin, Ireland. We report four cases with six episodes of concurrent carpal and elbow fractures or dislocations. Few such combinations of injuries have been reported in the literature. We discuss the mechanism and management of such injuries and conclude that elbow injuries should be suspected in severe carpal injuries. Surgical treatment may be required in their management.
