Pediatric Elbow Injuries

This article seeks to improve diagnostic accuracy of these elbow injuries by reviewing the secondary ossification centers in the elbow in the pediatric population, followed by a discussion of commonly encountered acute and chronic fractures and dislocations. While many elbow injuries are diagnosed with radiographs, there are situations where imaging with computed tomography (CT), ultrasonography (US) and magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) are essential in the diagnosis of these injuries.
