Surgical Outcomes of Pediatric Humeral Supracondylar Fractures Treated By Posterior Approach and Triceps Splitting
Supracondylar fractures of humerus in children are the most common pediatric elbow fractures that account for about 70% of elbow fractures [1-3]. These fractures are divided into two types; extension (98%) and flexion (2%) type. Regarding to the amount of displacement, the extension type is divided by Gartland into type I (without displacement), type II (with displacement but intact posterior c...
متن کاملTriceps-sparing Posterior Approach for Supracondylar Fractures in Children
Background: The most common pediatric elbow fracture is supracondylar humeral fracture which accounts for 60% ofelbow fractures in children. The aim of this study was to evaluate the results of open reduction and internal fixation oftype III supracondylar humeral fractures using a Triceps sparing posterior approach.Methods: In total, 98 patients were evaluated from June 2007 t...
متن کاملoutcomes of surgical treatment of pediatric supracondylar humerus fractures by bilateral triceps approach
background humerus supracondyllar fracture is one of the most common elbow injuries. choice of treatment depends on grading of the displacement. closed reduction and pinning is the preferred method of treatment. open reduction is indicated when we encounter neurovascular injury after closed reduction. one of the most important factors in the outcome of surgery is an appropriate approach that wo...
متن کاملComparison of lateral versus triceps-splitting posterior approach in the surgical treatment of pediatric supracondylar humerus fractures.
BACKGROUND Supracondylar humerus fracture is the most common fracture of the elbow in children. Closed reduction and percutaneous pinning is considered to be the optimal treatment strategy; however, in some instances, open reduction may be necessary. The aim of this retrospective study was to compare clinical and functional results of triceps-splitting posterior versus lateral approach in pedia...
متن کاملClosed Reduction versus Open Reduction and Pin Fixation in Pediatric Type III Supracondylar Humeral Fractures
Background Supracondylar humeral fractures constitute about 60% and 13% of all pediatric elbow and pediatric skeletal fractures, respectively, with a peak incidence in the 5-7 years age group. The aim of this study was to evaluate and compare closed reduction with open reduction and pin fixation in type III supracondylar humeral fractures in children younger than...
