@2022NYC, I’m so damn sorry to hear about that. I hope the prognosis is solid. Assume that you were specific in your statement that he’s getting it repaired and not replaced? And was there a fracture necessitating the screw?

Kid had a fracture in the elbow at the growth plate that never closed due to frequent stress from throwing. The ortho put 2 screw in the elbow to close the plate. He also had ligament damage that was repaired with the newer procedure with suture anchoring and an internal brace.
