‘PRUT’ – A cadaveric study to understand the mechanism of this rare paediatric elbow injury with a comprehensive review of literature
Introduction: Proximal radio-ulnar translocation (PRUT) with elbow dislocation, without a fracture, is an extremely unusual injury. Case: A 6-year-old female child presented to us with posterior elbow dislocation, PRUT and incomplete ulnar nerve palsy. A hematoma aspiration and reduction of the elbo...

| description | Introduction: Proximal radio-ulnar translocation (PRUT) with elbow dislocation, without a fracture, is an extremely unusual injury. Case: A 6-year-old female child presented to us with posterior elbow dislocation, PRUT and incomplete ulnar nerve palsy. A hematoma aspiration and reduction of the elbow joint were done with a hyper-supination manoeuvre to reverse the translocation. She was managed with an above-elbow cast for 4 weeks and showed good radiological and functional outcomes on subsequent follow-ups until 1 year. Conclusion: Early recognition of PRUT and a thorough clinico-radiological assessment are mandatory when dealing with paediatric elbow injuries. Our cadaveric study with illustrations defines the mechanism of this rare injury for better understanding. |
