FOREARM FRACTURES IN CHILDREN
The forearm has 2 bones: radius and ulna. Forearm fracture is common injury in active children. It can occur everywhere: falling onto arm in the school, playing or running in the playground. Usually, it is result of direct or indirect force. The forearm fractures are often associated with a radioulnar dislocation. Sometimes, the soft tissue are injures together with fracture. In this case, the surgery is necessary, but the vast majority of forearm fractures can be treated without surgery. It is important to remember that both elbow and wrist joints should be immobilized. Our innovative pediatric elbow orthosis FIX-KG-20 is an excellent product for that.
