Abstract
Pediatric diaphyseal forearm fractures are commonly managed with closed reduction and casting; however, unstable or displaced fractures may require surgical intervention. Titanium Elastic Nailing System (TENS) has emerged as the preferred technique, offering minimally invasive stabilization, early mobilization, and rapid fracture healing compared to conventional methods.
