Abstract
The transverse divergent dislocation of the elbow in the child is a rare occurrence. In a ten-year-old boy, divergent dislocation was associated with a fracture of the coronoid process and of the radial epiphysis. After a closed reduction and plaster immobilization, full function of the elbow was recovered within nine months.
