description BACKGROUND: Congenital radioulnar synostosis is a rare malformation of the upper limb, with functional limitations of the limb. CASE REPORT: A 10-year-old child with pain and restricted mobility of the elbow joint was admitted to the hospital. Plain film radiography and CT examination was performed.
