Isolated congenital pseudoarthrosis of the ulna is a rare entity. We present such a case of a 12-year-old boy, who was referred to us for deformity of his right forearm (since birth), and pain on the right hand with exertion. The examination and investigation confirmed the diagnosis of congenital pseudoarthrosis of the ulna, which was associated with neurofibromatosis and was treated by the creation of one bone forearm as a salvage procedure. |
