Core Tip |
Congenital radioulnar synostosis is a rare deformity of the upper extremity, which is characterized by loss of rotation and a variety of functional limitations. We present a rare case of bilateral congenital proximal radioulnar synostosis with osteoporosis, fragility fracture and nonunion. This case suggests that internal fixation plus bone grafting or stimulus of osteogenesis may result in much better outcome than expected. In addition, this case highlights that surgery should not be the first choice except for those with severe daily activity limitations, and physiotherapy is not inferior to surgical treatment. |
