ABSTRACT
Objective:To identify the risk factors for failure in closed reduction of flexed supracondylar humerus fractures of Wilkins type Ⅲ in children.Methods:The data of 171 children were retrospectively analyzed who had been treated for flexed supracondylar humerus fractures of Wilkins type Ⅲ from January 2013 to December 2021 at Department of Orthopaedics, Children's Hospital of Jiangxi Province and Children's Hospital of Fudan University Anhui Hospital. They were divided into a reduction failure group (35 cases) and a reduction success group (136 cases). Factors such as fracture height, age, body mass index, ulnar-radial offset direction, obvious axial rotation of the distal fracture fragment, combined ulnar nerve injury, and time from injury to operation were listed as risk factors. The independent risk factors for failure in closed reduction of flexed supracondylar humerus fractures were identified by univariate analysis of variance and multi-variate logistic regression analysis.Results:The average age of 171 children was (7.8±2.6) years. There were 151 cases of radial deviation and 20 cases of ulnar deviation, 120 high type fractures and 51 low type fractures, and 20 cases of combined ulnar nerve injury and 115 cases of obvious rotation of the distal fracture fragment. The one-way ANOVA showed statistically significant differences between the reduction failure group and the reduction success group in terms of age, obvious rotation of the distal fracture fragment, and ulnar nerve injury ( P<0.05), but no significant differences in fracture height, body mass index, ulnar-radial offset direction, or time from injury to operation ( P>0.05). Multivariate logistic regression analysis showed that obvious rotation of the distal fracture fragment ( OR=3.287, 95% CI: 1.136 to 9.513, P=0.028) and combined ulnar nerve injury ( OR=6.439, 95% CI: 2.262 to 18.327, P=0.001) were risk factors for failure in closed reduction. Conclusion:As obvious rotation of the distal fracture fragment and combined ulnar nerve injury may be independent risk factors for failure in closed reduction of flexed supracondylar humerus fractures of Wilkins type Ⅲ in children, they should arouse more attention in the treatment of such fractures.
