Figure 11c.  Elbow fracture in a 7-year-old girl. Multidetector CT was performed for surgical planning and complete evaluation of the fracture, which was diagnosed with radiography. At clinical evaluation, intraarticular displacement of a fracture fragment was suspected. (a) Axial CT image shows a fracture of the right proximal radius. There is posterolateral displacement of a fracture fragment (arrow). (b) Coronal oblique volume-rendered 3D CT image of the elbow shows a fracture dislocation of the radial head. Note the fracture fragment (arrow). (c) Sagittal volume-rendered 3D CT image of the elbow shows posterior displacement of the fracture fragment (thin arrow). Note the remaining preserved epiphysis (thick arrow).
