Abstract:
Congenital radioulnar synostosis is a rare anomaly of the forearm with restrictions of full movement of the affected limbs. It is often seen in early childhood when they present with functional impairments. A 10-year-old female with progressive difficulty with supination in both upper limbs seen in the OPD had bilateral forearm xray which showed bilateral proximal radioulnar synostosis. She was then scheduled for a corrective osteotomy. Diagnostic imaging helps in evaluation and treatment planning for congenital radioulnar synostosis as seen in this index case.

Development of the Limb Synovial Joints
The mesenchymal stem cells differentiate into chondrocytes that form the hyaline cartilage, and later the cartilaginous model of the bone. This model further transforms into a bone. This process is known as endochondral ossification.
During development, the limbs...
