The fracture of the distal part of the humerus usually involves the capitellum and variable part of the trochlea. The deep position of the trochlea within the elbow joint makes it a rare occurrence and protects it from direct damage. A 23-year- old local man named Mumtaz presented with an intra-articular half-moon-shaped fragment that had traveled and forward, leading us to assume a capitellar fracture. That was fixed through the medial approach of distal humerus. Postoperatively, patient a had good pain-free range of motion.
