We present the case of a 12-year- old boy who suffered from a combination of Monteggia fracture-dislocation along with ipsilateral distal radius fracture. The patient underwent closed reduction of the Monteggia lesion and the distal radius followed by percutaneous pinning. The postoperative course was satisfactory. Associated Monteggia fracture-dislocation and ipsilateral distal forearm fracture are rare. Our case and the literature review highlight the presence of common clinical features in pediatric patients with these particular injuries, including male dominance, age around 9 years, fall from a height, and lateral displacement of the dislocated radial head.
