description Equivalent lesions of Monteggia type IV injury have not appeared so far in the literature.

The lesion presented in this report could be considered as a missing piece in the puzzle of Monteggia and equivalent injuries, and it could also add towards considering type IV injury as a primary lesion and not as a variant of type I injury.
