Comminuted, displaced, and angulated distal radial and ulnar metaphyseal fractures after a trampoline park accident.

Abstract

The authors present the case of a six-year-old boy with a fractured right distal radius and ulna, causing mildly comminuted displaced angulated fractures of the right distal radial and ulnar metaphyses. Pediatric wrist fractures are amongst the most common fractures seen in children, making up 25% of all pediatric fractures. These fractures disrupt growth patterns and can lead to long-term adverse effects.
