Abstract:
Sixty-three elbow dislocations in 28 children and 34 adults were followed for a median time of 7 years. Fifty-seven dislocations were posterior or posterolateral. All the cases were treated with closed reduction and immobilization. Although function became satisfactory in both age groups, it was better in children than in adults.
