Abstract
|
|
|
A suparacondylar fracture of the humerus is the most common fracture around the elbow joint in children and it can result several kiinds of complecation. Trerefore, it must be diagnosed and treated carefully.
79 cases of supracondylar fracture of the humerus were treated at the Department of orthopedic surgery of Maryknoll hosptial from October, 1986 tonovember, 1992. Among them, 33 caes were followed up at least for 6 months. 18 cases were treated
with
closed reduction and percutaneous pinning (group A) and 15 cases with ipen reduction and K-wire fixation (group B), and analysed the changes of carrying angle and range of motion.
@ES The following results were obtained.
@EN 1. The mean age of the patients was 7.0 years(one to twelve years).
2. The average change of carrying angle were 5.8。 in the group A and 3.8。 in the group B.
3. The average limitation ofmotion were 6.3。 in the group A and 8.0。 in the group B.
4. Accordingly, there is no difference carring angle and limitation of motion between group A and group B.
