Atlas and epitome of traumatic fractures and dislocations . yand the specimen then dissected. Eight hand, dorsal view. We seethe displacement of the lower epiphyseal fragment and of the entirehand toward the radius, causing an abnormal prominence of the styloidprocess of the ulna. Fig. 4.—Typical fracture of the lower radial epiphysis in the livingsubject. Dorsal surface of the right hand. The radial displacementof the hand and the prominence of the styloid process of the ulna arewell shown. Fig. 5.—Bones from the same forearm (left), in pronation ; seenfrom the volar surface. Typical fracture

The radial displacementof the hand and the prominence of the styloid process of the ulna arewell shown. Fig. 5.—Bones from the same forearm (left), in pronation ; seenfrom the volar surface. Typical fracture of the radius (compare withthe section of this radius in Fig. 2). The ulna presents a high degreeof arthritis deformans (not the bony tuberosities which are eburnatedand show smooth surfaces) at tlie articular circumference (lower radio-ulnar articulation) ; it is possible that the ulna was also injured atthis place in this fracture. responding to the radial epiphysis wliere the line forms ashoulder.
