Hi
Hope this message finds you in good health.
Deformed bone occurs due to wrong treatment at the time of fracture.
If the fractured bones were not aligned properly at the time of application of plaster,then the bone becomes deformed.
Shadow may be caused by an Xray artifact or a bony cyst.
Ultrasound or MRI will help.
Hope your query has been answered
Best regards
