A new radiographic angle, the medial epicondylar epiphyseal (MEE) angle, was studied in 100 anteroposterior (AP) radiographs of normal children aged 3-12 years. The mean value was 38.2 degrees +/- 4.17 degrees (SD) (range 25 degrees-46 degrees), and the MEE angle could be drawn satisfactorily in 96 radiographs. The MEE angle did not vary significantly from this value in 25 Jones' view radiographs (paired t test, t = 0.06). The MEE angle was useful in assessing the accuracy of reduction of 20 supracondylar fractures of the humerus with satisfactory final results.
