| Abstract | Hand function was studied in three patients with congenital radioulnar synostosis. In spite of lack of pro- and supination, the impairment of hand function was found to be minimal. Radiological characteristics of the elbow, forearm and wrist are analyzed and indications for operative intervention are discussed. |
