Ulnar and radial shaft fractures

The ulnar radius is two long bones of the forearm. The ulna is located on the inner side of the forearm and is a long bone. It can be divided into two ends. Located on the side of the little finger, it is easier to fracture. Double fractures of the ulna and radial shaft can cause lateral displacement, overlap, rotation, and angular deformities, and the treatment is more complicated. The types of fractures caused by different forms of violence are also different, and helical radius double fractures occur. The direction of the fracture line is the same, and most of the fractures are oblique to the ulna and outward to the radial.
