Extension of the elbow and supracondylar fractures in children
We tested the hypothesis that children who sustain a supracondylar fracture have a greater range of elbow hyperextension than those with a fracture of the distal radius.

Analysis of displaced supracondylar fractures in children treated with closed reduction and percutaneous pinning [PDF]
Background: Closed reduction is difficult not only to achieve but also to maintain because of the thinness of bone of the distal humerus between the coronoid and olecranon where most supracondylar fractures occurs.

Evaluation of results of closed pinning for pediatric supracondylar humeral fracture
Background: Closed reduction and percutaneous pinning is the most applicable technique for treating pediatric supracondylar humeral fractures. Among the different pinning techniques, cross pinning has been shown to provide greater biomechanical stability

REMODELLING OF THE HUMERUS AFTER SUPRACONDYLAR FRACTURES IN CHILDHOOD
Four cases are shown to illustrate remodelling of the lower end of the humerus after supracondylar fractures with displacement in childhood. Remodelling is rapid and will restore almost normal anatomy and good function even with severely displaced ...
