Results of conservative treatment of femur diaphysis fractures in children

Abstract

In this article, we have evaluated 69 fractures of 67 patients, who had been treated for in the FYrat University Medical Faculty, Orthopaedics and Traumatology Clinic. 44 (65.7%) of our patients were male and 23 (34.3%) of them were female. The average of patients' age was 6.9 (between 1-14). The fracture was on the right side in 35 patients (52.2%), on the left side in 30 (44.8%) patients, diaphyseal fracture of femur and bilateral in 2 patients (3%). The average follow-up period was 23 months (between 5 and 51 months). Bryant traction was used for the patient group between 1-2 years. For the patients older than 2 years, Russell traction, 90¡ -90¡ skeletal traction and Bohler-Braun splint were used. A 1 1/2 hip spica cast was applied in the cases after an average traction period of 3 weeks. In 9 (13.4%) traction procedure was not applied but following the immediately closed reduction a 11/2 hip spica cast was made. The early complications were pintrack infection in 5 (8.8%) patients, 30 degrees of angulation in 7 (10.4%) patients, and limb shortening in 10 (15%) patients. After a long term follow-up our results were satisfactory. Nonunion, rotational deformity or joint stiffness was observed in none of our patients.
