Summary
This study tests whether special dissolving nails can heal children's broken forearm bones as well as standard titanium nails. The dissolving nails go away on their own, so many kids might not need a second operation to remove them. About 60 children who need surgery for a displaced forearm fracture will be randomly assigned to get either dissolving or titanium nails. The main goal is to see if the bones heal at the same speed, while also checking for complications and recovery.
