X-ray and computed tomography scan of the arm demonstrated an ulnar fracture and osteochondroma of the radius (Figures 1a–c). He had no history of systemic disease or major trauma.Figure 1. a. Anteroposterior and (b) lateral forearm radiographs and (c) coronal maximum intensity projection computed tomography image demonstrating an ulnar fracture associated with radial osteochondroma.Forearm deformity in patients with hereditary multiple osteochondroma has been reported (Peterson, 1994), but an ulna fracture secondary to a solitary radial osteochondroma is unusual.
