Abstract
The records of 27 patients with Radial club hand deformity attending the Hospital and Rehabilitation Centre for Disabled Children (HRDC) were reviewed. This longitudinal intercalary deficiency of forearm growth has a varied clinical presentation and the goals of management are both improved function and cosmesis. We present the results of our treatment and review the current world literature on this challenging orthopaedic deformity.
