    AbstractBoth-bone forearm fractures, also known as concomitant diaphyseal radius and ulna fractures, and distal radioulnar joint (DRUJ) dislocations are each uncommon injuries in adult upper extremity trauma. DRUJ dislocations are more often associated with radial shaft (Galeazzi) fractures. In this article, we report the case of a patient who sustained a both-bone forearm fracture and DRUJ dislocation, and we review the literature on this unique injury pattern.
