TL;DR: This retrospective study confirms that satisfactory functional results where obtained in 12 out of the 15 wrists where all the intra and extra-articular parameters of the Fernandez’ criteria where respected, and seems to suggest that a little wider tolerance than proposed in the literature could be accepted.

TL;DR: The authors report the results of the surgical treatment of supracondylar fractures of the humerus during childhood by closed reduction and percutaneous synthesis using Kirschner wires, which were satisfactory in 94% of cases with no septic, vascular, or nervous complications.

TL;DR: Factors capable of influencing clinical-functional and radiographic results, such as type of fracture, age of the patients, type of trauma, delay in treatment, associated lesions, in addition to variables that the surgeon must monitor, were observed.

TL;DR: Until the mid-eighties, capitellectomy was the treatment of choice for displaced fractures of the radial capitellum, but after the observation of complications such as instability of the elbow, proximal migration of the radius, valgus and humerus-ulna arthrosis, the capiteLLum was safeguarded until the biomechanics of the elbows had been restored.
