[QUOTE="cleonard, post: 24698, member: 21"] In an adult this is a metal plates and screws type of repair. No so in younger folk. If the bones are stable at all and well lined up it migh just be a case. If not the preferred method is to put a thin rod or pin through the center of the bone. If it's bad and will not stay aligned then it plates and screws. I'm no Dr. but those xrays look like he might get away with just a cast or at most the pin. It all depends on the Dr and how they like to treat injuries like this one. You can really get a lot of variability between doctors. [/QUOTE]
