Fractures and Dislocations in Children

TL;DR: Anatomic reduction is the main predictor of outcome in patients with Lisfranc fracture dislocations, and post-traumatic arthritis occurred significantly more often in Patients with non-anatomic than anatomic reduction.

TL;DR: All orthopedists should be alert to suspected AACA in children with trauma below the age of three, even without classic signs of abuse.

TL;DR: A modified Pauwels' intertrochanteric osteotomy is a reliable method of treating ununited fractures of the femoral neck following failed osteosynthesis: coxa vara and shortening can also simultaneously be addressed.

TL;DR: A case of a 6-year-old boy who sustained a fracture of proximal ulna with ipsilateral supracondylar fracture humerus is presented and it is suggested that the fracture pattern can be included under type I Monteggia equivalent on the basis of its characteristics, biomechanics and the mode of injury.

TL;DR: Thirty-six hip joints from cadavera ranging in age from seven fetal months to three years were studied, finding that during the first year of life there is a diffuse, canalicular vascular network within the chondroepiphysis, with several arteriosinusoidal vessels crossing the growth plate.

TL;DR: Femoral shaft fractures are the most common major pediatric injuries managed by the orthopaedic surgeon and management is influenced by associated injuries or multiple trauma, fracture personality, age, family issues, and cost.

TL;DR: The records of 224 children who had a slipped capital femoral epiphysis and who had no underlying metabolic or endocrine disorder were studied retrospectively to investigate the epidemiology of bilateral slipped capital Femoral Epiphysis.
