Pediatric Floating Elbow: Case Report and Review of the Literature.
Floating elbow is defined as concomitant fracture of ipsilateral humerus and forearm. It is an uncommon injury with high potential to develop elevated forearm compartment pressures with potentially devastating neurological sequel. Several treatments have been reported. Although conservative treatment has been considered in the English literature, percutaneous or minimally invasive fixations is a goal when it is possible, soft tissue and growth plate preservation is crucial for fracture healing, mobility and bone growth.
