Brief Summary: The aim of this study is to investigate the short term functional and radiological outcomes of using double short titanium elastic nails as treatment of pediatric distal radius fractures
Detailed Description: Severely displaced distal radial fractures in children are generally considered unstable especially when associated with total rupture of the periosteum Although the remodeling potential of distal radial fractures is very good in childhood a subgroup of severely displaced and unstable distal pediatric forearm fractures are candidates for operative fixation because acceptable reduction cannot be maintained in a conservative way These injuries are usually candidates for closed reduction and minimal invasive fixation

Operative osteosynthesis technique of pediatric wrist fractures are optimally minimally invasive physeal sparing and with acceptable reduction

Most operative methods need complementary 4 to 6 weeks of postoperative immobilization by casting Many of these techniques do not respect physeal plates Both current available fixation techniques modifications of Kirschner wiring or conventional elastic stable intramedullary nailing ESIN have the same rate of mild complications Growth disturbance is a rare but represents a very rare severe complication of transepiphyseal wire placement

Varga et al Medicine 2017 96148 used modified ESIN method for operative treatment of severely displaced pediatric distal metaphyseal or metadiaphyseal radial fractures With 2 short prebent retrograde elastic titanium nails inserted proximal to the distal radial physis a very stable stabilization achieved without the need for a prolonged period of cast immobilization The nails do not cross the physeal plates so the possibility of postoperative physeal arrest is reduced

their resultsthe study shows a new technique in fixation of severely displaced pediatric distal radial fractures é more stable fixationless pin track irritations and infectionsearly return to full range of motion within the sixth postoperative week short removable splint was sufficient for early pain-free mobilization

All the x-rays made 6 months postoperatively showed anatomic reduction and there has been no sign of omic reduction and there has been no sign of growth disturbance at the area of thece at the area of the distal radius We conduct this study to evaluate the Short term functional and radiological outcomes of using double short titanium elastic nails in treatment of pediatric distal radius fractures
