متن کاملFunctional outcomes of Gartland III supracondylar humerus fractures with early neurovascular complications in children
This was a retrospective observational study. The aim of this study was to evaluate functional outcomes in children treated for Gartland III supracondylar humerus (SCH) fracture with neurovascular (NV) injuries using validated outcome measures.

متن کامل[Supracondylar fractures of the humerus in children].
Supracondylar fractures of the humerus were treated in 50 children over a six-year period. Patient age ranged from 2 to 15 years; 58% of the children were between 5 and 8 years of age. Our data agreed with the literature regarding left-sided predominance, usual age at injury, greater incidence in boys, and the infrequency of open and anteriorly displaced fractures. Our data differed from the li...
متن کاملVascular compromise associated with supracondylar fractures in children.
OBJECTIVE Our aim was to study the significance of persistently absent radial pulse, with monophasic doppler flow after close reduction percutaneous pinning of displaced supracondylar fracture of humerus, and the need of early exploration of brachial artery in such cases. METHODS Between July 1992 and 1999, 86 children with Grade III supracondylar fracture of humerus were treated at King Khal...
