Introduction: Congenital radioulnar synostosis (CRUS) is a rare condition characterized by the fusion of the radius and ulna bones in the forearm, resulting in limited forearm rotational movement.
Case Report: We present a unique case of a 26-year-old male who suffered a forearm injury following a road traffic accident. Initial evaluation revealed a malformed proximal radius and distal radioulnar joint, and the presence of radioulnar synostosis, along with a fracture at the junction of the radius and ulna.
Cerclage wiring and tension band wiring are commonly utilized in orthopedic surgeries for patellar fractures, but wire breakage is a recognized complication. This report presents a rare case where a broken cerclage wire exhibited intraarticular intracapsular migration, prompting open removal adjacent to the medial femoral condyle after unsuccessful attempts at arthroscopic extraction. A 50-year-old male with a history of patellar fracture fixation using cerclage and tension band wiring, presented with persistent knee pain and restricted motion.
