About a new entity in the coronal shear fracture of the distal humerus: Broberg-Morrey's fracture with Laugier's fracture in the same elbow

Coronal shear fractures of the distal humerus involving only the capitellum or the trochlea are rare injuries. Their combination has rarely been described. Herein, we report the case of a 39-year-old man who presented with pain and total functional impotence in his right elbow following a fall; the clinical and radiological findings revealed a new entity in the coronal shear fractures of the distal humerus, which included a comminuted fracture of the capitellar and displaced separate trochlea in the same elbow. This fracture was treated surgically with a good outcome at the last follow-up.
