- Divergent dislocation of divergent elbow is very rare and this in jury has been reported only 7 cases in English literatures.
This injury was affected in the disruption of all three joints of elbow, such as the radiocapitellar, the ulnotrochlear and the proximal radioulnarjoint.
According to Stimsons classification, there are two types ; anteroposterior and mediolateral.
We experienced a case of the divergent dislocation of elbow with ipsilateral Collesfracture which were treated by closed reduction and cast immobilization. We obtained satisfactory result.

Abstract
PDF
- Carpal scaphoid fracture is most common in carpal bone injury, but its not easy to diagnose this fracture after affecting the damage, and also is not rane induced avasular neeresis and/or non-union.
13 cases of carpal scaphoid fractures (5 displaced fresh fractures and 8 non-unions) were treated by open reduction and internal fixation with Herbert screw and also cancellous bone graft taking from distal radius were performed on the cases of non-union. The results and conclusions were follows 1. Bony union takes average 11.8 weeks in displaced fresh fractures and average 14.4 weeks in non-unions.
2. By final assessment, excellent result was taken in 10 and good in 3.
3. It might be effective procedure for which cancellous bone was harvested from distal radius of same operative site.
4. Herbert srrew would be one of the good and rigid internal fixation device for the treatment of scaphoid fracture.
