[Regeneration of a diaphyseal segment of the radius (author's transl)].
The osteogenesis potential and the subsequent skeleton reconstruction are well known in young children. Our case illustrate these two features. A six years old patient had lost the entire radial diaphysis during an open trauma of the forearm ; after the debridement of the wound, the limb was simply immobilized in a cast leaving off the radial diaphysis. Six months later an antomical reconstruction of the radius was obtained with a very good function.
