Radiography showed a right humeral capitellar fracture, and CT further confirmed a Dubberley type 1A fracture. Closed reduction was performed under local anaesthesia, and an anatomical position was obtained. After the reduction, her right elbow was casted for 18 days. Three months after the injury, bone union was achieved without displacement, and the active range of motion of her right elbow recovered similar to the unaffected side. At 1\u2009year postinjury, the Grantham score was excellent, and she obtained a two-point score on the Disabilities of the Arm, Shoulder and Hand (DASH) Questionnaire. Although surgical treatment is recommended for a displaced humeral capitellar fracture, a Dubberley type 1A (no posterior column fracture of a distal humerus) can be effectively treated by early closed reduction.<\/jats:p>","DOI":"10.1136\/bcr-2017-223820","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2018,4,17]],"date-time":"2018-04-17T10:25:31Z","timestamp":1523960731000},"page":"bcr-2017-223820","update-policy":"https:\/\/doi.org\/10.1136\/crossmarkpolicy","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":2,"title":["Conservative treatment in displaced fractures of the humeral capitellum: a reduction technique under local anaesthesia"],"prefix":"10.1136","volume":"2018","author":[{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0002-6224-5519","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"Takahisa","family":"Ogawa","sequence":"first","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Orthopaedics, Suwa Central Hospital, Chino-city, Nagano, Japan"},{"name":"Department of Orthopaedics, Tokyo Medical and Dental University, Bunkyo-ku, Tokyo, Japan"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Shinichi","family":"Shirasawa","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Orthopaedics, Suwa Central Hospital, Chino-city, Nagano, Japan"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]}],"member":"239","published-online":{"date-parts":[[2018,4,17]]},"reference":[{"key":"2025082803471364000_2018.apr17_1.bcr-2017-223820.1","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.5435\/00124635-200509000-00001"},{"key":"2025082803471364000_2018.apr17_1.bcr-2017-223820.2","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.2106\/JBJS.J.00845"},{"key":"2025082803471364000_2018.apr17_1.bcr-2017-223820.3","doi-asserted-by":"crossref","first-page":"199","DOI":"10.1097\/00005373-199602000-00005","article-title":"Closed reduction of coronal fractures of the capitellum","volume":"40","author":"Ochner","year":"1996","journal-title":"J Trauma"},{"key":"2025082803471364000_2018.apr17_1.bcr-2017-223820.4","doi-asserted-by":"crossref","first-page":"62","DOI":"10.1097\/BOT.0b013e318214ded1","article-title":"Closed reduction and early mobilization in fractures of the humeral capitellum","volume":"26","author":"Puloski","year":"2012","journal-title":"J Orthop Trauma"},{"key":"2025082803471364000_2018.apr17_1.bcr-2017-223820.5","doi-asserted-by":"crossref","first-page":"21","DOI":"10.1016\/S0749-0712(02)00011-2","article-title":"Fractures of the elbow\u2019s lateral column radial head and capitellum","volume":"18","author":"Rizzo","year":"2002","journal-title":"Hand Clin"},{"key":"2025082803471364000_2018.apr17_1.bcr-2017-223820.6","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1016\/S0030-5898(05)70132-2"},{"key":"2025082803471364000_2018.apr17_1.bcr-2017-223820.7","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.2106\/JBJS.D.02954"},{"key":"2025082803471364000_2018.apr17_1.bcr-2017-223820.8","doi-asserted-by":"crossref","first-page":"320","DOI":"10.1016\/J.JHSB.2006.02.002","article-title":"Treatment of fractures of the humeral capitellum using herbert screws","volume":"31","author":"Mahirogullari","year":"2006","journal-title":"J Hand Surg Br"},{"key":"2025082803471364000_2018.apr17_1.bcr-2017-223820.9","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1016\/S1058-2746(99)90048-4"},{"key":"2025082803471364000_2018.apr17_1.bcr-2017-223820.10","doi-asserted-by":"crossref","first-page":"265","DOI":"10.3928\/0147-7447-19980301-09","article-title":"Post-traumatic heterotopic ossification about the elbow","volume":"21","author":"Ilahi","year":"1998","journal-title":"Orthopedics"},{"key":"2025082803471364000_2018.apr17_1.bcr-2017-223820.11","doi-asserted-by":"crossref","first-page":"1701","DOI":"10.2106\/00004623-200012000-00003","article-title":"Functional outcome following surgical treatment of intra-articular distal humeral fractures through a posterior approach","volume":"82-A","author":"McKee","year":"2000","journal-title":"J Bone Joint Surg Am"}],"container-title":["BMJ Case Reports"],"original-title":[],"language":"en","link":[{"URL":"https:\/\/syndication.highwire.org\/content\/doi\/10.1136\/bcr-2017-223820","content-type":"unspecified","content-version":"vor","intended-application":"similarity-checking"}],"deposited":{"date-parts":[[2025,8,28]],"date-time":"2025-08-28T10:47:23Z","timestamp":1756378043000},"score":1,"resource":{"primary":{"URL":"https:\/\/casereports.bmj.com\/lookup\/doi\/10.1136\/bcr-2017-223820"}},"subtitle":[],"short-title":[],"issued":{"date-parts":[[2018,4,17]]},"references-count":11,"alternative-id":["10.1136\/bcr-2017-223820"],"URL":"https:\/\/doi.org\/10.1136\/bcr-2017-223820","relation":{},"ISSN":["1757-790X"],"issn-type":[{"type":"electronic","value":"1757-790X"}],"subject":[],"published":{"date-parts":[[2018,4,17]]}}}
