An 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 کاملTreatment outcomes of both-bone diaphyseal paediatric forearm fractures.
BACKGROUND Elastic-stable intramedullary nailing (ESIN), is an accepted method for stabilization of unstable forearm shaft fractures in children. This study analyzed the radiographic and functional outcomes of intramedullary nailing of forearm diaphyseal fractures in children. MATERIALS AND METHODS A retrospective analysis was performed of children with forearm shaft fractures and open epiphy...
متن کاملIntramedullary 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 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 کاملNancy nailing of diaphyseal forearm fractures. Single bone fixation for fractures of both bones.
We identified 25 children (10 girls and 15 boys) who had been treated with single bone intramedullary fixation for diaphyseal fractures of both forearm bones. Their mean age was 10.75 years (4.6 to 15.9). All had a good functional outcome. We conclude that in selected children, single bone intramedullary nailing is a suitable method of treatment for diaphyseal fractures of both bones of the for...
