INJURIES IN REGION OF ELBOW-JOINT 101 Injuries in the Region of the Elbow-joint Fracture of the Lower End of the Humerus.—The humerus isfrequently involved in injuries of the elbow-joint in adults and in gives rise to a typical displacement, which is clearly revealed uponexamination of the radiographs obtained. The displacement varies withthe direction of the injury. The lower end, along with the elbow-joint,may be displaced backwards, while there may also be some lateral displace-ment and rotation. Stereoscopic radiographs are extremely useful in
