Abstract
Monteggia fracture-dislocations remain a relatively uncommon injury. Prompt recognition of this injury is imperative. The character of the ulnar fracture is useful in determining optimal treatment. It is imperative to look for associated injuries of the radial head and coronoid, which alter the management and lead to altered outcomes.
