description INTRODUCTION: Humeral biepicondylar fracture dislocation is a very rare injury reported only once in English literature by G R Taylor et al. We report a case of humeral biepicondylar fracture dislocation in a 13-year-old girl with a unique mechanism of injury. CASE PRESENTATION: A 13-year-old girl presented with trauma elbow. Radiographs showed biepicondylar fracture of humerus with dislocation of elbow. CONCLUSION: In humeral biepicondylar fracture dislocation, reduction is always unstable. So treatment is open reduction and internal fixation.
