    Area of Science:

    • Orthopedics
    • Pediatric Orthopedics
    • Hand Surgery

    Background:

    • Radial club hand is a congenital condition affecting forearm development.
    • Previous studies reported initial treatment outcomes for radial club hand.

    Purpose of the Study:

    • To assess the long-term efficacy of radial club hand treatment.
    • To evaluate the durability of functional and cosmetic improvements over a decade.

    Main Methods:

    • Re-examination of ten patients previously treated for radial club hand.
    • Comparison of measurements (ulnar bowing, ulnar length) from initial treatment to ten-year follow-up.

    Main Results:

    • Minimal changes observed in ulnar bowing and ulnar length over ten years.
    • Treated patients maintained previously reported cosmetic and functional benefits.
    • Patients demonstrated satisfactory adaptation to activities of daily living.

    Conclusions:

    • Surgical or non-surgical interventions for radial club hand provide lasting benefits.
    • Long-term outcomes indicate sustained functional and cosmetic restoration.
    • Patients adapt well to daily life activities post-treatment.
