Cerrahi tedavisinde en seçkinyöntem kapalı redüksiyon ve peruktan pinlemedir. Cerrahiye bağlı en önemlikomplikasyonlarından biri medialden yerleştirilen pin nedeniyle iyatrojenikulnar sinir yaralanmasıdır. Çalışmamızda, çocuk yaş Gartland tip 3suprakondiler humerus kırıklarının tedavisinde, izole lateral pinlerlefiksasyon ve bu osteosenteze ek stabilite sağlaması için yerleştirilen medialpin konfigurasyonu karşılaştırılarak, takipteki korreksiyon kaybı ve kaynamasonrası pin çıkarım süreleri açısından üstünlüklerinin değerlendirilmesiamaçlanmıştırGEREÇ VE YÖNTEM: 2014-2015 yıllarında Gartland tip 3suprakondiler humerus kırığı nedeniyle çapraz pin (iki lateral bir medial)uygulanan 30 hasta (22 erkek 8 kadın yaş ortalaması8,1 ± 2,6) ve lateral pin (iki lateral)uygulanan 10 hasta (5 erkek 5 kadın ortalama yaş 7,1 ±2,1) çalışmaya dahil edildi. Hastaların ameliyat sonrası ilk radyografilerindeki ve pin çıkarımıesnasında çekilen radyografilerinde Baumann açıları ölçüldü. Açılardakideğişim, ilk kallus dokusunun görünür olma zamanı ve pin çıkarımına kadar geçensüreler karşılaştırıldı.BULGULAR: Cerrahi sonrası ilk dönemde ve telçıkartılması esnasındaki Baumann açılarında değişim sırasıyla; çapraz pingrubunda 4,7 ± 2,2 derece lateral pin grubunda 5,0 ± 2,3 derece idi ve gruplar arasında anlamlı birfark yoktu. Hastaların ilk kallus oluşum süreleri sırasıyla 19,7 ± 3,0 ve20,0 ± 3,1 gün; pin çıkartılma süreleri sırasıyla 35,3 ± 3,7 ve35,9 ± 3,6 gün olarak ölçüldü ve gruplararasında anlamlı birfark yoktu.SONUÇ: Medialden pin yerleştirilmesi korreksiyonu korumakiçin şart değildir, sadece lateral pinler ile uygulanan stablizasyon, yeterlikırık kaynamasını sağlaması açısından güvenilir bir yöntemdir.</p></abstract>

                            <p>INTRODUCTION: Supracondylar humerus fractures are10% of the fractures in children. The preferred treatment of displacedsupracondylarhumerus fractures in hildren is immediate closed reduction and percutaneousfixation with pins. One of the most important complications of the surgery isthe iatrogenic ulnar nerve injury due to the pin placed medially. In our study,we aimed to evaluate Gartland type 3 supracondylar humerus fractures weretreated with isolated lateral pinning and medial pin placed configuration foradditional stability in the osteosynthesis and superiority of configurationsabout correction loss and time to pin removal.MATERİAL AND METHODS: 30 patients (22 males, 8 females, mean age8,1 ± 2,6) who applied cross pin ( two lateral one medial) and 10 patients (5males, 5 females, mean age 7,1 ± 2,1) who applied lateral pin (two lateral) inpediatric supracondylar humeral fractures between 2014-2015 were included inthe study. Baumann’s angle was measured on first radiographs after surgery and theradiographs after pin removal. The differences in the angles, the time ofappearance of the first callus tissue and the time to pin removal werecompared.RESULTS: The differences in the Baumann’s angles in thecross pin group was 5.0 ± 2.3 degrees and in the lateral pin group of 4.7 ± 2.2degrees and there was no significant difference between the groups. In terms ofinitial callus formation and times to pin removal there was no significantdifference between the groups.CONCLUSİON: Medial pin placement is notnecessary to preserve the correction, stabilization applied with only lateralpins is a reliable method for adequate fracture healing.</p></trans-abstract>
