Re-displacement of stable distal both-bone forearm fractures in children: A randomised controlled multicentre trial

Re-displacement of stable distal both-bone forearm fractures in children: A randomised controlled multicentre trial

Abstract Introduction Displaced metaphyseal both-bone fractures of the distal forearm are generally reduced and stabilised by an above-elbow cast (AEC) with or without additional pinning. The purpose of this study was to find out if re-displacement of a reduced stable metaphyseal both-bone fracture...

Zusammenfassung:Abstract Introduction Displaced metaphyseal both-bone fractures of the distal forearm are generally reduced and stabilised by an above-elbow cast (AEC) with or without additional pinning. The purpose of this study was to find out if re-displacement of a reduced stable metaphyseal both-bone fracture of the distal forearm in a child could be prevented by stabilisation with Kirschner wires.
