The aim of this study was to identify the risk factors of forearm fractures in children. Materials and Methods: In this clinical trial study, 86 patients randomly were divided into two groups: group A (treated with a long arm cast method) and group B (treated with Sugar-Tong splint method). The risk factors of distal radial fractures were evaluated. Results: Eighty six children less than 15 years with the mean age of 12.24±2.24 years old were studied. The compared with a true transverse fracture, the 10°,20°, and 30° of obliquity increased the likelihood of redisplacement 3.23, 5.82 ,12.14 times, respectively. Conclusion: The complete initial displacements of the fracture and increases obliquity of the fracture line are the most important risk factors for redisplacement.
