摘要：

Forearm fractures are the most common type of fractures in pediatric age. As children have excellent healing potential, fracture nonunion is a very uncommon complication. Elastic intramedullary nailing, a minimally invasive technique, is an excellent treatment modality for the unstable forearm shaft fractures in children, which can seldom lead to nonunion. Here, we present a case of hypertrophic pseudoarthrosis of mid shaft of ulna in a 13-year-old male, which healed spontaneously with elastic stable intramedullary nailing in situ.
