Подробное описание
Supracondylar Humerus Fractures are the most common type of elbow fracture in children, typically occurring between the ages of five and seven. These injuries are critical due to their proximity to major neurovascular structures, making prompt and appropriate management essential to prevent severe complications. The vast majority (approximately 98%) of SCHFs are extension-type injuries, resulting from a fall onto an outstretched hand with the elbow hyperextended.
Classification: The Gartland System The classification is based on the degree of displacement of the distal fragment relative to the proximal fragment, as seen on a lateral radiograph.
Type I stable, nondisplaced fractures are managed non-operatively.
- Treatment: Immobilization in a long-arm cast or splint for 3 to 4 weeks, typically in 90 degrees of flexion, followed by early mobilization .
- Goal: Pain control and protection from further displacement. Type II FracturesThese fractures are unstable in extension but maintain some stability due to the intact posterior cortex. Management remains a point of controversy, with both conservative and surgical options being utilized.•Conservative Option: Closed reduction (CR) and casting, often reserved for less displaced or stable Type IIA fractures.•Surgical Option: Closed Reduction and Percutaneous Pinning (CRPP) is the preferred surgical method, especially for unstable Type IIB fractures (those with rotational instability).
Type III and IV are highly unstable fractures that require urgent intervention to achieve and maintain reduction .
Treatment: Closed Reduction and Percutaneous Pinning (CRPP) is the mainstay of treatment .Open reduction may be necessary if closed reduction fails or if there is a vascular compromise requiring exploration.
•Goal: Anatomical reduction and stable fixation to prevent malunion and neurovascular complications.

Экспериментальный: Conservative treatment
Children with Gartland type II supracondylar humeral fractures will be treated conservatively using closed reduction followed by immobilization in an above-elbow cast .
Patients will be followed up clinically and radiologically at regular intervals to assess fracture alignment, healing, and functional outcomes.

Closed reduction of Gartland type II supracondylar humeral fracture under appropriate analgesia or anesthesia, followed by immobilization using an above-elbow cast.
Patients will undergo regular clinical and radiographic follow-up to monitor fracture alignment, healing, and functional recovery.
