The patient is a normal, healthy 12-year-old male who fell while skateboarding. The patient states that he tried to break his fall by extending his left hand, at which time he experienced immediate pain and deformity. The patient's parents rushed him to the emergency room, where complete views of the wrist were taken by radiology and interpreted by this physician. The findings are as follows: Findings: Four views of the left wrist show a comminuted fracture of the distal radial metaphysic with angulations and displacement of the fracture fragments. Carpal bones are intact, as is the distal ulna. At this time, we will be moving the patient to the operating suite, where a closed reduction with casting will be performed.
