The anterior humeral line. A. A line drawn on the lateral radiograph along the anterior surface of the humerus normally transects the middle of the capitellum. B. With an extension fracture of the supracondylar region this line will either transect the anterior third of the capitellum or pass entirely anterior to it. This is especially useful in pediatric physis injuries. The arrow indicates a posterior fat pad. (Reprinted from the Sherman SC. Supracondylar fractures. J Emerg Med. 2011;40(2):e35–e37.
