Abstract
Although congenital pseudoarthrosis of the radius is a rare case, it has been reported many times in the literature in the past and it has been shown that it can be associated with neurofibromatosis type 1. However, traumatic radius pseudoarthrosis has never been reported before. In this case report, all treatment options were applied to the same patient over a four-year period and the results were reported. A two-year-old boy had a left radius diaphysis fracture after a simple fall, and bone union could not be achieved despite the application of cast immobilization, internal fixation grafting, and electrical stimulation in an external center. He was admitted to our hospital when he was six years old. A plain X-ray image and computed tomography scan showed that he had radius pseudoarthrosis and also he was diagnosed with neurofibromatosis type 1 on genetic analysis. The patient underwent wide resection of the segment with pseudoarthrosis and free vascularized fibula grafting. Bone union was achieved in the third postoperative month.
