AIM OF THE STUDY To assess Safety, Efficacy and Functional outcome of flexible nailing with (ESIN) in unstable fractures of both bones of forearm in children. OBJECTIVES • To determine the clinical spectrum of paediatric patients who shall undergo ESIN for both bones forearm fractures. • To assess the functional outcome based on clinical parameters, Daruwalla’s grading, Price et al; grading and the scores obtained by the Upper Extremity and the Functional Index (UEFI). • To assess fracture union, time to union, fracture alignment and verify re–establishment of the natural radial bow (based on radiographs).
