Abstract

The authors present two rare cases of a paediatric Galeazzi-equivalent fracture. In contrast to Galeazzi's fracture-dislocation in adults, an epiphyseal separation of the distal ulna occurred instead of dislocation of the distal radioulnar joint (DRUJ) or both. A precise radiographic analysis of the epiphyseal separation of the distal ulna and its anatomical reduction were keys to obtaining a good result in the treatment of paediatric Galeazzi-equivalent fracture.
