Abstract

Background: Concordant radius and ulna fractures, also known as both bones forearm fractures (BBFF), are common upper extremity injuries in the adult population. These can arise from either direct or indirect forces on the radius and ulna. Direct forces usually cause fractures at the same level in both bones while indirect forces, such as axial loads during falls onto an outstretched hand, can cause fractures at different levels.
