Resumen

La luxación no reductible de cabeza radial es una lesión extremadamente infrecuente, especialmente en el paciente adulto. Presentamos el caso de una fractura diafisaria de radio asociada a una luxación posterior de codo y a una luxación irreductible de la cabeza radial. Tras una reducción cerrada de codo, se realizó la reducción abierta y osteosíntesis de radio, permaneciendo irreductible la cabeza radial. Finalmente hallamos circundando al radio la interposición de la inserción del bíceps, y, tras la retirada de la misma, realizamos la correcta reducción de la cabeza radial. Seis meses tras la cirugía, el paciente presentaba un balance articular completo sin dolor. No hemos hallado en la literatura ningún caso similar.

Palabras Clave

luxación de la cabeza del radio - fractura articular - fractura del radio - tendón del bíceps
