Injuries about the distal ulna in children
1Department of Orthopaedic Surgery, Mt. Sinai Medical Center, Cleveland, Ohio, USA.
Abstract:
This article examines several types of injuries about the distal ulna that appear in children. Ulnar styloid fractures are relatively common and tend not to have the deforming potential of Salter-Harris-type injuries. Physeal injuries with their potential for long-term growth impairment and functional limitation are potentially the most serious. Chronic stress injuries at the distal ulna, as seen in competitive gymnasts, and chronic late disruption of the distal radio-ulnar joint are also discussed.

Fractures: Bone Repair
Minor fractures with no bone displacement are treated by immobilizing the fractured bone using a cast or splint. However, in the case of fractures with displaced bones, the broken bones are repositioned before immobilization to ensure successful healing without deformation and loss of function. The realignment of fractured bone ends is performed through a process called reduction. If the procedure...
