We create a randomized clinical trial between the treatment with above elbow armcast alone and the treatment of above elbow in combination with a short arm cast for stable midshaft both-bone forearm fractures.
children who arrive at the emergency unit with a stable both-bone midshaft forearm fracture will be asked to join the trial.
If the fracture will be stable during reposition in the operating room, a randomization between 2 kinds of plaster treatment will be done.
Outpatient clinic visits till a follow-up of 6 months. During these visits we will investigate: consolidation and dislocation on X-ray, function of both arms, complains in daily living and complications.
