OBJECTIVE@#To explore clinical effects of micro external fixator for the treatment of supracondylar fracture of humerus in children.@*METHODS@#From October 2017 to December 2018, 20 children with supracondylar fracture of humerus (treatment group) were admitted and treated with micro-external fixation after closed reduction, including 14 males and 6 females, aged from 6 to 14 years old with an average of (7.9±2.4) years old, classified to Gartland Ⅲ. Thirty nine children with supracondylar fracture of humerus were admitted as control group from January 2015 to September 2017, and treated with closed reduction Kirschner wire fixation. Among them, including 24 males and 15 females, aged from 6 to 14 years old with an average of (8.1±1.9) years old, classified to GartlandⅢ. Operation time, times of intraoperative fluoroscopy, and complications between two groups were observed and compared, Mayo scoring system at the latest follow up was used to evaluate clinical effect.@*RESULTS@#Twenty children in treatment group were followed up from 6 to 12 months with an average of (8.0±2.5) months, operation time was(30.10±12.50) min, times of intraoperative fluoroscopy was(10.00±2.50). Fifteen patients got excellent results, 3 good, 2 fair according to Mayo elbow joint scoring. No ulnar nerve injury moderate or severe elbow varus occurred in treatment group. Thirty-nine children in control group were followed up from 5 to 13 months with an average of (9.0±3.1) months, operation time was(45.60±18.90) min, times of intraoperative fluoroscopy was(19.00±5.60). Twenty-three patients got excellent results, 12 good, 3 fair and 1 poor according to Mayo elbow joint scoring. One child occurred ulnar nerve injury and recovered at the final follow-up, 1 child occurred severe cubitus varus and 2 children occurred moderate cubitus varus. There was no statistical difference in clinical effect between two groups (@*CONCLUSION@#Treated with closedreduction and mini external fixator fixed on children humerus condyle fracture could receive the same clinical result as closed as reduction gram needle fixation, which has advantages of shorter operation time, less times of intraoperative fluoroscopy, not esay to damage ulnar nerve during operation, less incidence of moderate and severe cubitus varus deformity after operation, and the permeation was simple.

<p><b>OBJECTIVE</b>To explore clinical effect of manipulative reduction and percutaneous K-wires fixation in treating supracondylar fractures of the humerus in children.</p><p><b>METHODS</b>From July 2010 to December 2012, clinical data of 52 children with supracondylar fractures of the humerus, which treated with manipulative reduction and percutaneous K-wires fixation, were retrospectively analyzed. Among them, there were 35 males and 17 females with an average age of 6.7 (ranged from 2.5 to 12) years old. All fractures were type Garland II - III fractures, and 51 cases were extension type and 1 case were flexion type. Flynn evaluation standard of elbow performance score were applied to evaluate clinical effects.</p><p><b>RESULTS</b>All patients were followed up from 12 to 18 months with average of 16 months. According to Flynn evaluation standard of elbow performance score, 41 cases obtained excellent result, 8 good and 3 moderate.</p><p><b>CONCLUSION</b>Manipulative reduction and percutaneous K-wires fixation for the treatment of supracondylar fractures of the humerus in children has many advantages, such as minimally invasive, rapid recovery, stable fixation. It could prevent osteofascial compartment syndrome, Volkmann Contracture and cubitus varus.</p>

<p><b>OBJECTIVE</b>To analyze the clinical effect and related risk factors of Gartland type II-III supracondylar fractures of humerus in children in the emergency closed reduction and percutaneous Kirschner wire fixation.</p><p><b>METHODS</b>From January 2008 to June 2013,112 children of Gartland type II to III supracondylar humeral fractures were treated in children in emergency closed reduction and percutaneous K-wire fixation, including 72 males and 40 females with an average age of 6.2 years old ranging from 2 to 11 years old. Among them,74 cases were in Gartland type II fractures,38 cases were in type III; The duration from injury to surgery time was 2.5 to 8 hours (averaged 4.6 hours). Elbow cast was applied after operation with the elbow extended of 100 degrees for 4 to 6 weeks, then the gypsum and Kirschner wires were removed.</p><p><b>RESULTS</b>All patients were follow-up from 6 to 60 months (averaged 12 months). All fractures reached clinical healing. The final follow-up was assessed by Flynn criteria, the result was excellent in 86 cases, good in 23 cases, general in 3 cases, excellent and good rate was 97.3%. Three patients had mild cubitus varus deformity without orthopedic treatment. No pin tract infections, iatrogenic ulnar nerve injury, compartment syndrome, and complications such as Volkmann ischemic contracture occurred.</p><p><b>CONCLUSION</b>Closed reduction and percutaneous Kirschner wire fixation had advantages of exact reduction, firm fixation, fewer complications ,less pain in children undergoing emergency surgery, and.high success rate, so it is a safe and efficient treatment for humeral supracondylar fracture in children.</p>
