Both bone forearm fractures are one of the most common upper extremity fractures. Both closed and open treatment usually results in excellent functional results. Complications, including nonunions and infections, can occur and are difficult to manage. During this webinar, diagnosis, timing, and treatment options including revision fixation, bone graft options, and salvage will be discussed.
Goals of this webinar:
1. Diagnosing infected forearm nonunions and developing the timing of a treatment plan
2. Using pre-op labs to determine optimal timing of interventions
3. Bone grafting options and sources; Papineau, Allograft including RIA and vascularized grafts
4. Fixation options for second stage procedures
5. Salvage options, technical tips for one bone forearms
