Zusammenfassung:Forearm fracture are common injuries seen in paediatric age. They can be managed either non-operatively or surgically. In non-operative treatment following closed reduction fracture was immobilized with above elbow plaster and maintenance of reduction will be checked by serial X-rays till the fracture union is achieved. When non-operative treatment fails to reduce or when reduction is not maintained, surgical intervention is required. The surgical treatment for paediatric diaphyseal fractures of both bones remains challenging for an orthopedic surgeon.
