<p>Perched anteromedial radial head dislocation is a rare injury pattern that is yet to be reported in the literature. This article describes a case report of an isolated radial head dislocation that was perched on the coronoid process. The images in this study show this rare injury pattern, which did not include a fracture of the coronoid or true elbow dislocation. The patient was successfully treated with a closed reduction. The patient regained full ROM and function. Previously described literature has failed to report this injury pattern or successful closed treatment. The success of this case demonstrates the difficulty of closed reductions even under proper anesthesia and the importance of performing them in the setting where the surgeon has the option to convert to open reduction in unsuccessful cases.<p>
