Delayed Presenting Radial Neck Epiphysiolysis Managed with Open Reduction and Internal Fixation with K Wires: A Case Report and Review of Literature.

Introduction: Radial neck fractures in the pediatric age group account for 1% of all fractures in children. A completely displaced fracture with an angle >30° requires operative intervention. Case Report: An 11-year-old boy with Judet IVb radial neck epiphysiolysis 4 weeks old was managed by open reduction and internal fixation with K-wires. Conclusion: Anatomic reduction must be achieved in radial neck fractures to restore their function. Open reduction and internal fixation with K wires must be considered in patients with >30° angle of inclination, neglected fracture, and failure of closed reduction.
