Resumo

Isolated dislocation of the distal radio-ulnar joint and isolated dislocation of the radial head in adults are not common injuries.A simultaneous dislocation of the radial head and distal radio-ulnar joint with no other injury seems to be extremely rare since only one report was found in the English literature.A similar case, but with some differences in presentation and treatment is reported.
