  • Title: Pediatric update #11. Congenital radioulnar synostosis. A new technique for derotational osteotomy.
    Author: Seitz WH, Gordon TL, Konsens RM.
    Journal: Orthop Rev; 1990 Feb; 19(2):192-6. PubMed ID: 2320384.
    Abstract:
    Hyperpronation deformity due to congenital radioulnar synostosis has previously been managed by derotational osteotomy through the synostosis, while stabilization has been achieved with K-wires and a long arm cast. The technique presented here uses a small external fixation device that allows precise rotational correction and affords adequate stabilization yet avoids cast immobilization.
