Chronic post-traumatic radial head dislocation associated with dissociation of distal radio-ulnar joint: a case report

We present an unusual case of an isolated interosseous membrane disruption of the forearm without any fracture pattern. Dislocation of both radial head and distal radio-ulnar joint was presented. Open reduction of the radial head with radial neck shortening osteotomy was performed.
