“…Tras una información detallada, la mayoría de los padres interrogados (88.5%) optaron por un abordaje quirúrgico con EIF frente a yeso. 46 Entre las razones destaca una recuperación más rápida, una estancia hospitalaria más corta, menos deformidades o trastornos del crecimiento y menos estrés para el niño con EIF. La única razón en contra del tratamiento quirúrgico fue la necesidad de anestesia general.…”

The treatment of lower extremity fractures in children and adolescents can be challenging. In the second virtual session organized by the Sociedad Española de Ortopedia Pediátrica (SEOP) in conjunction with the Sociedad Argentina de Ortopedia y Traumatología Infantil (SAOTI), the evaluation and principles of treatment of five controversial lower limb fractures were discussed. With the participation of experts from both societies, we addressed the current literature in the form of debates and possible differences in treatment. This article aims to provide readers with a summary of the literature-based arguments used in that session.

Background. In recent years, in the treatment of hip fractures in pediatric practice, there has been a tendency to move from conservative methods using a plaster cast and traction to surgical stabilization. Aim. To evaluate the results of treatment of femoral fractures by osteosynthesis with flexible titanium rods in children aged 0 to 7 years in the long-term period. Materials and methods. The study included 118 children aged 0–7 years with femoral fractures. Average age – 3.3±1.8 years, 74 (62.7%) boys, 44 (37.3%) girls. In the main group (n=62), surgical treatment was performed, mainly with the help of osteosynthesis with flexible titanium rods – ESIN (n=56; 90.3%). The reference group (n=56) underwent conservative treatment of fractures. Results. In the main group, accelerated fracture consolidation was noted in 74.2%, in the reference group – 32.1% of cases (p=0.032). With the use of conservative treatment, half of the patients had delayed consolidation of fractures, after surgical treatment there were only 5 such cases (8.1%, p=0.005). The overall frequency of long-term complications after fracture treatment (contracture and deformity of adjacent joints) in the main group was 8.1%, in the reference group it was 23.2% (p0.05). In the main group, 51.6% of patients had no movement restrictions in adjacent joints (in the reference group – 19.6%, p=0.012) and 64.5% had no change in limb length (in the reference group – 17.9%, p=0.025). In the main group, 88.7% of the children's relatives rated the result of treatment as “excellent” and “good”, in the reference group 83.9% of the ratings were satisfactory and unsatisfactory. Conclusion. Long-term results of treatment of femoral fractures in children aged 0–7 years using ESIN are better, and satisfaction with treatment of relatives of children is higher than with conservative methods.
