A 30-year-old male was involved in a traffic accident and sustained bilateral proximal radial shaft fractures. a Preoperative anteroposterior radiographs show bilateral proximal radial oblique diaphyseal fractures. b Six months postoperative views show TENs placed to stabilize the radial shaft fractures. Bridging callus is noted around the fractures sites. c Postoperative follow-up radiographs reveal bone union of bilateral proximal radial shaft fractures. Removal of the implants 8 months postoperation did not contribute to refractures
