Lateral condylar fractures of the humerus in children.
Aims Displaced fractures of the lateral condyle of the humerus are frequently managed surgically with the aim of avoiding nonunion, malunion, disturbances of growth and later arthritis. The ideal method of fixation is however not known, and treatment varies between surgeons and hospitals. The aim of this study was to compare the outcome of two well-established forms of surgical treatment, Kirsc...
متن کاملA COMPARATIVE STUDY OF LATERAL APPROACH VERSUS P OSTERIOR APPROACH FOR THE SURGICAL TRE ATMENT OF SUPRACONDYLAR FRACTURES OF THE HUMERUS IN CHILDREN
Background: Supracondylar fracture of the humerus is the second most common fracture in children. For most cases closed reduction and percutaneous crossed pinning is recommended. Those patients who had previously undergone an unsuccessful closed reduction trial need open reduction and pin fixation, but the best surgical approach is questionable. Most surgeons apply the technique of posterio...

متن کاملThe posterolateral approach to the distal humerus for open reduction and internal fixation of fractures of the lateral condyle in children.
Our study describes a posterolateral approach to the distal humerus for open reduction and internal fixation of displaced fractures of the lateral condyle. A total of 20 patients had open reduction and internal fixation over a four-year period using this approach, and at a mean follow-up of 12 months had full union, range of movement and no complications, either clinical or radiological. This a...
