In dislocation thereis a smooth, large projection below the crease in front of the elbow; in fracturethere is a sharp projection above the crease. In fracture there is crepitus;.in dislocation there is no crepitus. The diagnosis can be settled by the a; Fig. 307.—^Loss of carrying function after fracture of innercondyle of the humerus.
