Abstract
Congenital radio-ulnar synostosis (CRS) is a rare congenital disorder characterized by the fusion of the radius and ulna bones in the forearm. This results in a lack of mobility and flexibility in the forearm, and can cause functional limitations, including difficulty with grasping and holding objects. A 4-year-old child with pain and restricted mobility of the elbow joint was admitted to the hospital. Plain film radiography and CT examination was performed. Radiological examinations showed a congenital proximal radioulnar synostosis. Diagnostic imaging including computed tomography with three-dimentional (3D) reconstructions, preceding surgery enables planning of the surgical treatment.
