A humero-ulnar synostosis is a bony connection between the humerus and the ulna. This is a very rare finding and it results in a serious disability of the elbow. Usually, a synostosis of the elbow occurs as a congenital anomaly. In this case, a 6-year-old girl was seen with a post-traumatic humero-ulnar synostosis, which has never been reported in the literature before. Surgical resection of the humero-ulnar synostosis was performed. Along with rapid intensive physical therapy, almost full recovery of function was achieved. The short-term result is very satisfactory, but the long-term results and recurrence rate are still unknown.
肱尺关节融合是指肱骨和尺骨之间形成骨性连接。这是一种非常罕见的情况，会导致严重的肘部功能障碍。通常，肘部融合是一种先天性异常。在此病例中，一名6岁女童患有创伤后肱尺关节融合，这在文献中此前从未有过报道。对该肱尺关节融合进行了手术切除。同时配合快速强化物理治疗，功能几乎完全恢复。短期效果非常令人满意，但长期效果和复发率仍未知。
