The Distribution of Paediatric Forearm Fractures: A Five-Year Retrospective Cohort Study of 4546 Forearm Fractures in Children
Fracture patterns in paediatric forearm fractures vary with age, with older children showing a higher incidence of complete, distal, and epiphyseal fractures. This study provides a detailed characterization of paediatric forearm fractures, which may inform clinical management and preventive strategies, particularly in tailoring age-specific care. Further research should explore the long-term outcomes of these fracture patterns.
