| ntroduction:Pediatric forearm fracture is one of the most common upper extremity fractures at young age. The treatment isoften non-surgical. In patients, who need surgical intervention, intramedullary nails are used. Growth disturbances in long bonesof lower extremity occur in pediatrics. Longitudinal overgrowth is very rare in the upper extremity.Case Presentation:This report presented a five-year-old child, who had radius and ulna shaft fracture in the distal one third of hisforearm. This child was treated with radius fracture fixation by flexible intramedullary nails. After six months, the child had wristpain and limitation in range of motion. In the radiography, 4 mm increase in radius was observed.Conclusions:Overgrowth of long bones after application of intramedullary nails was proven in the lower extremity yet it wasobserved in the upper extremity and the exact mechanism of this phenomenon has not yet been determined and needs furtherinvestigation. |
