Intramedullary nailing for paediatric diaphyseal forearm bone fracture.
BACKGROUND Though most of the pediatric diaphyseal forearm bone fracture can be treated with closed reduction and cast application, indications for operative intervention in pediatric both-bone forearm fractures include open fractures, irreducible fractures, and unstable fractures. Controversy exists as to what amount of angulation, displacement, and rotation constitutes an acceptable reduction...
متن کاملTreatment of Diaphyseal Forearm Fractures in Children
Both bone forearm fractures are common orthopedic injuries. Optimal treatment is dictated not only by fracture characteristics but also patient age. In the pediatric population, acceptable alignment can tolerate greater fracture displacement due to the bone's ability to remodel with remaining growth. Generally, these fractures can be successfully managed with closed reduction and casting, howev...
متن کاملAn age- and sex-matched comparative study on both-bone diaphyseal paediatric forearm fracture.
PURPOSE Intramedullary (IM) nailing and plating are recognised fixation methods for both-bone midshaft forearm fractures. Although both methods are effective, IM nailing has recently been the accepted operative treatment for the paediatric population. The aim of the study was to compare the differences in the radiographic and functional outcomes of an age- and sex-matched cohort of children fol...
متن کاملOutcome of diaphyseal forearm fracture-nonunions treated by autologous bone grafting and compression plating
BACKGROUND The treatment of forearm fracture-nonunions continues to represent a therapeutic challenge, and reported outcomes are moderate at best. Limiting aspects of this particular anatomic location include the relation between restoration of shaft length with the anatomy and long-term functional outcome of adjacent joints, as well as the risk of elbow and wrist stiffness related to prolonged...
متن کاملLate presentation of isolated digital contracture following forearm fracture.
The inflammatory response associated with fracture healing induces varying levels of local scarring and adhesions. Associated morbidity from local adhesions is rare in forearm fractures, but entrapment of flexor tendons has been reported in the literature following both-bone forearm fractures in children and adolescents [1–9]. In 14 of the 15 cases of flexor tendon entrapment following both-bon...
