Abstract
Trauma predisposes an individual to bacterial arthritis. This report describes a case of posttraumatic bacterial arthritis with luxation of the elbow. It was necessary to perform synovectomy as a complement to systemic antibiotic treatment in order to control infection and reduce the dislocation. The use of external fixation is demonstrated.Entities:
