A practical treatise on fractures and dislocations . The authors elbow splint. I 7. Fracture at the Base of the Condyles, complicated with Fracturebetween the Condyles, extending into the Joint. This fracture, which is but a variety or complication of the preced-ing, is even more difficult of diagnosis; and its signs, results, andproper treatment differ sufficiently to demand a separate FEACTUEE AT THE BASE OF THE CONDYLES. 265 I have recognized the accident six times. Confined to no periodof life, it seems to be the result of a severe blow inflicted directlyupon the lower and back part of the humerus,or upon the olecranon process. Dr. Parker, of fig. ss. Kew York, was inclined to regard an obscureaccident about the elbow-joint, which he saw ina lad sixteen years old, as a longitudinal frac-ture of the humerus, with separation of onecondyle, but which had been occasioned by afall upon the For myself, I should re-gard this latter circumstance as presumptiveevidence that it was not a fracture of this char-acter, yet I do not mean to deny the possibilityof its occurrence in this way. Its characteristic symptoms are, increasedbreadth of the lower end of the humerus, oc-casioned by a separation of the condyles; (lis- between, the condyles,placement upwards and backwards of the radius and ulna; shortening of the humerus; crepitus and mobility at thebase of the condy
