The Flexion-Type Supracondylar Humeral Fracture in Children

Abstract: A flexion supracondylar fracture of the humerus is an uncommon fracture in children and accounts for only 1% to 10% of all supracondylar fractures. » The injury is caused by a direct fall on the point of the elbow, causing hyperflexion at the elbow, rather than by a fall on an outstretched hand, which is the mechanism in an extension-type fracture.» The ulnar nerve is at higher risk of injury in this fracture by the spike of the proximal fragment or by entrapment in the callus. » This fracture is inherently un… Show more

“…The lesion is caused by a direct fall on the tip of the elbow that causes hyper exion of the infracondylar segment. This fracture is unstable, it is di cult to reduce by push-pull with a joystick xed in the distal fragment [5]. Fixing in "double X" ensures a veri able intraoperative, solid and safe reduction.…”
