- Elbow dislocation
Radiograph-Negative
- Biceps tendon rupture/dislocation
- Lateral epicondylitis
- Medial epicondylitis

Evaluation
Management
General Fracture Management
- Acute pain management
- Open fractures require immediate IV antibiotics and urgent surgical washout
- Neurovascular compromise from fracture requires emergent reduction and/or orthopedic intervention
- Consider risk for compartment syndrome
Specific Management
- If displaced <5 mm immobilize in stable position (usually 45 degrees of elbow flexion)
- ORIF indicated for unstable fracture
- Orthopedic consultation is best to guide treatment
