摘 要:Objective:Fracture of either radius or ulna with a dislocation either at the proximal or distal radioulnar joint (DRUJ) is not a common injury and is inherently *** we report a case series,with both-bone forearm fractures associated with dislocation of DRUJ,as a Galeazzi-variant type fracture-dislocation,and try to analyze this injury ***:The study was based on 6 patients having Galeazzi-variant type fracture-dislocation of different age (20 to 45 years).All fractures were closed *** fractures involved the same level and three fractures were at different levels of radius and ulna *** thorough examination and investigations they were treated with limited contact dynamic compression plate without additional fixation for ***:All cases were followed up for 24 *** maximum incidence occurred in age group between 31 and 40 *** the fractures of both radius and ulna were united in average time of 12 *** of motion of wrist and elbow,supination and pronation at final follow-up were *** was no subsequent re-subluxation or dislocation of the DRUJ in any of the ***:Galeazzi variant in adult is a new undescribed pattern of forearm with wrist *** open reduction and internal fixation of both-bone forearm fractures is mandatory,followed by 3 to 4 weeks of immobilization in a cast for the healing of disrupted DRUJ.
