Abstract

Congenital pseudarthrosis of the forearm is extremely rare. Only a few cases have heen reported, all in association with neurofibromatosis. The condition is similar to congenital tibial pseudarthrosis and is dif· ficult to treat. We report a case of successful healing with a vascularized fibular transplant.
