[Stable elastic nailing]
Abstract:
The authors illustrate an original method of osteosynthesis concerning shaft fractures in children: Stable Elastic Nailing. They elaborate the physiopathological basis and specify all details of this technique. The results of this treatment as well as its limits are considered through personal experience of 217 femurs, 42 tibias, 36 humerus, 84 fore-arms and 96 supracondylar fractures of the humerus. We essentially proceeded for a comparative analysis with other methods of osteosynthesis or conservative treatment, illustrating the net superiority of stable elastic nailing in their indications according to the recommended technique.
