Abstract: In Monteggia type IV injury, the radio capitellar joint should be examined carefully. Failure to recognize an associated radial head fracture dislocation may lead to problems with preoperative planning for additional procedures involving the radial head and computed tomography (CT) scan is an important tool to identify such undiagnosed injury.
