Abstract

The authors report a case of Kienböck's disease in a nine-year-old male gymnast, treated conservatively. It resulted in a clinically normal wrist and complete revascularisation of the lunate on MRI. This case suggests that the natural course of Kienböck's disease can be more favourable in children as compared to adults.
