The study found external fixation devices are effective for treating pediatric fractures across all age groups. These devices should be more widely considered in pediatric fracture treatment strategies.

Area of Science:

  • Orthopedic Surgery
  • Pediatric Traumatology

Context:

  • A significant number of pediatric fractures require surgical intervention.
  • Advancements in orthopedic techniques offer various fixation methods for pediatric fractures.

Purpose:

  • To evaluate the efficacy and applicability of external fixation devices in treating pediatric fractures.
  • To assess the role of external fixation in the context of modern pediatric fracture management.

Summary:

  • Between 1985-1988, 3037 pediatric fractures were treated, with 245 requiring surgery.
  • External fixation devices were used in 30% of diaphyseal fractures, demonstrating versatility across age groups.
  • The study advocates for increased utilization of external fixation in pediatric fracture treatment.
