Rapid remineralization of the distal radius after forearm fracture in children.
J Pediatr Orthop. 2011; (2): 138-43
Bone mineral content (BMC) and density (BMD) have been shown to diminish after fracture and immobilization in adults. Distal radius fractures are common in children, and unlike adults, there is a low incidence of refracture. The primary aim of this study was to assess the change in radial BMC and BMD after upper extremity fracture and casting in healthy pediatric patients.
