Functional and radiological outcomes of different pin configuration for displaced pediatric supracondylar humeral fracture: A retrospective cohort study

Abstract: BACKGROUND The most widely accepted treatment for pediatric supracondylar humeral fracture is closed reduction and percutaneous pinning (CRPP). However, there is debate regarding the technique that is utilized, whether crossed or lateral pinning, and the number of pins used. AIM To compare the functional and radiological outcomes of lateral and cross pinning in the management of humeral supracondylar fracture. METHODS A retrospective analysis… Show more

“…As a further alternative, pure lateral pin fixation could reduce the risk of nerve injury [29,30]. Recent investigations describe similar functional and radiological outcomes of PCP and lateral fixation [31,32], while loss of torsional stability seems to be a problem after lateral fixation [21,33].…”

“…In contrast, lateral pinning is less biomechanically stable but protects the ulnar nerve. 9 Although the functional end results of fracture are generally excellent, the cosmetic end results are frequently less than average. The functional and radiological outcomes of fracture Supracondylar Humerus should be monitored because they may differ from the immediate post-management status.…”
