Bilateral Flexion-Type Supracondylar Humerus Fracture

Supracondylar humerus fractures are common in the pediatric population, but flexion fractures are very rare in this population. The need for open reduction in these fractures is high and can be challenging for orthopaedic surgeons. In this article, we report a 9-year-old patient with bilateral flexion-type humeral fracture treated with closed reduction, which, to our knowledge, is the first report in the literature. We concluded that the first step in the treatment of flexion-type supracondylar fractures should be closed reduction with the help of an experienced assistant surgeon and that successful results can be obtained even in bilateral flexion-type fractures with appropriate treatment and follow-up.
