Abstract
Apart from untreated congenital deformities of the wrist (described in Chap. 9) that persist, there are deformities that manifest in the young child or even later either as a consequence of growth disturbance of the growing skeleton or due to the effects of muscle imbalance. The age at which a growth-related deformity becomes apparent depends on the severity of growth inhibition. Consequently, some of the conditions mentioned in this chapter may actually manifest in the older child.
