Transverse /Horizontal fracture of the surgical neck of the humerus
Comment on the lesion ,, and mention the nerve most likely to be affected
Fracture of medial epicondyle with minimal gapping
• Ulnar nerve is most likely to be injury; However prevalence of its injury in children is rare about 10-15 %
Horizontal fractures traversing the distal radial and ulnar shafts (Green stick)
Cortical buckling of the distal radial shaft diaphysis consistent with torus fracture
An impacted transverse fracture is seen involving the distal radial end
A transverse fracture line of the distal radial shaft with non coaption of the opposing fracture ends , volar angulation and mild lateral displacement of the distal segmnet
