Abstract

Among musculo-skeletal injuries at birth the most common are fracture of the clavicle, brachial plexus injury and long bone fractures. Physeal separation of the distal humerus does not appear in statistics; only sporadic cases have been reported. Here we report a new case and discuss diagnostic and treatment alternatives.
