Abstract
The combination of an elbow dislocation with fractures of the radial head and coronoid process has been labeled the terrible triad of the elbow. We prefer to repair the coronoid, repair or replaced the radial head, and reattach the origin of the lateral collateral ligament to the lateral epicondyle. Repair of the medial collateral ligament is not usually necessary.
