Fracture Arm Clinical Trial
Official title:
Treatment of Medial Humeral Epicondyle Fractures in Children With Absorbable Cartilage Nails
To compare surgical outcomes from medial epicondyle fracture fixation with absorbable cartilage nails to those from traditional Kirschner wire fixation.
From August 2007 to January 2012, 32 patients undergoing surgery for medial humeral epicondyle fractures in our hospital were randomized into group A (traditional Kirschner wire) or group B (absorbable cartilage nail). The same surgical team performed the operations, and patients were followed for over a year. Group A had open reduction with K-wire fixation, and group B was fixed with absorbable cartilage nails. The Bede scoring system was used to evaluate elbow function at follow-up. ;
