Abstract
The high energy trauma has become very common on account of the upsurge of traffic accidents. We often see
multiple injuries; fractures, dislocations, soft tissue damage in the same patient, interesting the same member or different
members. We report a case with a rare association of lesions treated in our department; it comes to elbow dislocation
associated with a comminuted fracture of the lower quarter of radius and the scaphoid. We will present our diagnostic
and therapeutic strategy to this unusual injury, and the results obtained after 12 months follow-up.
