Background: Environmental conditions are effective on childhood supracondylar humerus fractures. In this study, we evaluated the relationship between weather and these Materials Methods: We started this study following approval of a non-interventional research ethics committee. Patients (and July 2018 with supracondylar humerus fractures were included in study. The hospital’s PROBEL system ...

Supracondylar fractures of the humerus are the most common fracture pattern of the elbow in children. Severely displaced supracondylar fractures of the distal humerus in children are challenging problems. Many treatment methods have been described for the treatment of displaced supracondylar fractures of the humerus, however, it has not been reached a consensus for the choice of the treatment. ...

The purpose of this retrospective study was to examine pediatric supracondylar humerus fractures at a Level I trauma center. Data were analyzed to identify risk factors associated with closed reduction failure. Closed pediatric supracondylar humerus fractures that were treated at the authors' trauma center between October 1997 and January 2009 were reviewed. The main outcome variable was necess...

This case series was conducted at the Department of Orthopaedics and Traumatology, Lady Reading Hospital Peshawar, from January 2007 to June 2008 to assess the outcome of two percutaneous lateral-entry pins in the operative management of supracondylar humeral fractures. The study included management of Type II and III displaced supracondylar humeral fractures according to Wilkins’s modification...

Introduction: Infection is a common complication in multiply traumatized patients with the majority being nosocomial in origin. We report a series of three patients with open fractures of lower limb which were initially debrided and stabilized with external fixation. Subsequent conversion to definitive internal fixation was performed. All three patients subsequently suffered limb loss as a resu...

Because standard femoral supracondylar nails have certain disadvantages, they are often replaced by traditional femoral or tibial locked nails. The purpose of this study was to make a biomechanical comparison between both types of traditional locked nails to determine which technique was more suitable for treating unstable femoral supracondylar fractures. Fourteen left Sawbones femurs (Pacific ...

according to our experience, the best treatment for operable supracondylar fractures of the adults' humerus is surgery via open reduction following internal fixation and early mobilization. the preferred approach is olecranon because of its observable fragments of the fracture and easy fixation without damaging ulnar nerve and triceps muscle. in this article, we review several cases treate...

The orthopedic hind limb affections in dogs constituted 31.99 % of the admitted cases to the Surgery clinic, Faculty of Vet. Med. Cairo univ., while the corresponding percentage in cats was 11.70 % during the period from October 2010 to April 2013. Pelvic limb fractures accounted for 50.60 % of the orthopedic dog patients, whereas, pelvic limb fracture in cats represented 69.39%. Femoral fractu...

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...
