Abstract

A four-year-old boy with forearm instability secondary to defective ulna osteomyelitis underwent one-bone forearm operation in neutral supination-pronation position. A year after the operation, shortening (3 crn) of the forearm was detected. Radiographs showed delayed union; however, a stable and functional forearm was obtained. The patient was able to use his fingers.

Özet

Defektif ulna osteomiyelitine bağlı sağ önkol instabilitesi saptanan dört yaşındaki erkek hastaya, nötral supinasyon pronasyonda önkola tek kemik ameliyatı yapıldı. Ameliyattan bir yıl sonra, sağ önkolda 3 cm kısalık saptandı; radyolojik olarak kaynama gecikmesi görülmekle birlikte önkolun stabilitesi ve fonksiyonu yeterli bulundu. Hasta parmaklarını kullanabiliyordu.
