Spanish term or phrase: Fractura de cuello de cabeza radial de brazo derecho
This term appears in a discharge report, in the diagnosis section:

"Fractura de cuello de cabeza radial de brazo derecho."

I understand that "fractura de cabeza radial" means "radial head fracture" but I'm not sure how "cuello" fits in.

Thank you.

Makes much more sense with "and".

Another option is to ignore the "cabeza". I suppose there is no neck without a head!
