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 کاملPediatric supracondylar fractures of the distal humerus
Supracondylar fractures of the humerus are a common pediatric elbow injury that are historically associated with morbidity due to malunion, neurovascular complications, and compartment syndrome. True anteroposterior and lateral radiographs are essential not only for an accurate diagnosis, but also for creating a treatment plan for these injuries. A staging system (based on the lateral radiograp...
متن کاملSupracondylar-Y fractures of the humerus.
The supracondylar-Y fracture of the humerus is one of those uncommon injuries whose treatment varies considerably from one clinic to another. It is caused by a heavy fall on the hand or point of the elbow, the olecranon being forced upwards as a wedge between the humeral condyles, prizing them apart and displacing them upwards and backwards. Displacement is considerable, and the fracture is uns...
