background: there are few studies comparing the biomechanical properties of angled blade plate and locking compression plates in supracondylar osteotomy. in the current randomized study, we prospectively compared the clinical and radiological outcomes of supracondylar osteotomy using these two plates. methods: forty patients with valgus knee malalignment were randomly assigned to two equal numb...

Background. Supracondylar fractures are the commonest elbow injury in children. Most displaced supracondylar fractures are manipulated and held with a medial/lateral entry or two lateral Kirschner wires. This clinical study has results purely from a three lateral divergent wire technique. Methods. Displaced supracondylar fractures were manipulated closed and three lateral divergent wires insert...

BACKGROUND Supracondylar fracture of humerus is the most common fracture in first decade of life. There are various treatment modalities for this fracture i.e closed reduction and casting, open reduction and internal fixation and percutaneous pinning. Study was conducted to know the outcome of Percutaneous Pinning in the management of displaced supracondylar fracture of humerus in children. M...

interventions improve analgesic treatment of supracondylar fractures in a pediatric emergency department. BACKgRouND: Provision of appropriate and timely treatment for pain in the pediatric population has been challenging. Children with painful conditions commonly present to emergency departments (EDs), a setting in which it may be particularly difficult to consistently provide timely analgesic...

BACKGROUND Percutaneous Kirschner wire fixation represents the classic treatment for displaced supracondylar humeral fractures in childhood. This type of treatment first requires satisfactory reduction of the fracture. Failure to achieve a satisfactory reduction or inadequate stabilization can result in instability of the fracture fragments, which can result in either an unsatisfactory cosmetic...

BACKGROUND Although closed reduction and percutaneous pinning is accepted as the treatment of choice for displaced supracondylar fracture of the humerus, there are some debates on the pinning techniques, period of immobilization, elbow range of motion (ROM) exercise, and perceptions on the restoration of elbow ROM. This study was to investigate the consensus and different perspectives on the tr...

Background: Supracondylar humeral fracture is probably the most common elbow in children requiring surgical intervention. We observed a subtype of pediatric supracondylar with sideward translation, without substantial displacement sagittal plane on initial radiographs. The purpose this study was to calculate incidence and suggest modification standard operative technique, achieve desired alignm...

Objective: While surgical treatment is the most accepted method for displaced supracondylar humerus fractures in children, there little data about immobilization after surgery. The aim of study to determine whether any difference preventing loss reduction between long-arm cast and splint following pediatric fracture Patients Methods: We conducted a retrospective analysis patients with treated o...
