A 6-year and 5-month-old boy was admitted 2 months after injury to the right forearm. The radiograph on presentation showed complete dislocation of the radial head (A and B). The elbow had about 15-degree loss of flexion and the ulna fracture had united (C). We performed open reduction, osteotomy of the ulna at the site of CORA angle point and inserted a locking compression plate to stabilize the osteotomy of the ulna (D and E). Ten months after the repair, the radiographs showed complete bone union at the ulna osteotomy, and the radial head remained reduced (F). The plate was removed and 10 months after surgery, lateral and anteroposterior view of elbow illustrated good relationship between radial head and capitellum (G and H).
