There is no change in the relationsof the three bony points. It somewhat resembles transverse 174 FRACTURES OF THE HUMERUS fracture above the condyles. The diagnosis is made upon thefollowing points : The age of the individual ; the history ofthe accident; the existence of abnormal mobility at a very lowlevel on the humeral shaft; anteroposterior mobility very Olecranon fossa.

This figure illustrates the fact that the epiphysis does not include the condylesof the humerus (X-ray tracing).
