Melissa fell playing tennis and landed on her left elbow which we resulted in a so called 'terrible triad'. A traumatic injury pattern of the elbow characterized by elbow dislocation (often associated with posterolateral dislocation or LCL injury), radial head fracture, and coronoid (top the radius fracture. She saw a doctor recommended by our neighbor, Jim Morgan, and had surgery on Thursday afternoon. Now she has a new ball on the end of her radius bone and lots of rehab in her future.
