case_images: Diagnostic assessment: X-ray imaging of the right forearm revealed a grossly shortened radius, deformed radius and ulna and radio ulnar dislocation, as shown in Figure 1.
case_images: computed tomography coronal (A) and sagittal (B) view of right forearm showing non-visualization of the proximal 1/3rd of the radius with the shaft of ulna appearing curved and poorly supporting the wrist joint; muscles of the forearm show disuse atrophy
