Although medial epicondyle fractures are responsible for 12% of pediatric elbow fractures, they rarely occur concurrently with a capitellar fracture, and the treatment approach and indications are controversial. According to the case report (CARE) guidelines, here we present a case of the medial epicondyle and capitellar fractures with elbow dislocation in a 4-year-old girl who underwent K-wire fixation and splint application. After four months of follow-up, the patient showed good results and a full range of motion. Open reduction and internal fixation may be reasonable options for medial epicondyle and concomitant capitellar fractures using the medial and lateral approaches. We suggest using K-wires, especially in the pediatric population.
