Abstract
A four-year-old otherwise healthy girl presented to our outpatient clinic complaining of left elbow pain and swelling. The child’s parents reported an indoor trauma the previous day. On clinical examination, the left elbow and forearm exhibited diffuse swelling. The gentle passive range of elbow and forearm motion was normal and mostly pain-free. Nevertheless, the radial head was stable but a palpable click was noted. The neurovascular examination was normal. The patient received radiographs of the traumatized left and normal right elbow. Radiographs of her left forearm were unremarkable.
