Radial clubhand-like deformity resulting from osteomyelitis of the distal radius
Radial clubhand is an uncommon congenital deformity in which a part of or a whole radius is absent. This is a report on two cases of radial clubhand-like deformity resulting from osteomyelitis of the distal radius in which the distal radial metaphysis was destroyed and resorbed, resulting in a defec...
