About

The goal of this clinical trial is to learn about long term outcomes in Supracondylar Humeral Fracture in children after surgery.

The main questions it aims to answer are:

  • how good is the elbow function
  • what are the post-operative complication
  • what is the time before return to sport
  • what is the aesthetic prejudice of the scar for the patient Participants will answer questionnaries and send photographs of their elbows to the examinator

Full description

Elbow fractures represent 5% of total fracture in children. Supracondylar humeral fractures compound half of them.

As distal humerus is responsible for only 20% of humeral growth, bone remodelage her is less important compared to other sites in children..

Many different attitudes are possible : orthopedic reduction, open reduction, percutaneous pinning ... No methode as clearly demontrated a superiority.

Percutaneous pinning as been widely used the last years though We haven't find any study evaluating long term outcomes regarding functionnal and aesthetic outcomes in supracondylar humeral fracture treated by percutaneous pinning.
