Supracondylar humerus fractures (SCH) are the most prevalent elbow fractures in the pediatric age group. Delay in treatment poses challenges and an elevated risk of complications. We describe a case of revision for postoperative malalignment with closed reduction percutaneous pinning with good clinical outcomes. Malunion complications in SCH can be minimized with early intervention in cases of postoperative displacement. Careful use of technical skills can help with closed reduction in cases with delayed presentation.
肱骨髁上骨折(SCH)是儿童年龄组中最常见的肘部骨折。治疗延迟会带来挑战并增加并发症风险。我们描述了一例通过闭合复位经皮穿针治疗术后畸形愈合的翻修病例,临床效果良好。对于SCH的骨不连并发症,在术后出现移位的情况下早期干预可将其降至最低。在延迟就诊的病例中,谨慎运用技术技巧有助于闭合复位。
