    Abstract:
    Clinico-roentgenological signs of dislocations of both forearm bones complicated by abruption of epicondyles were diagnosed in 260 children. Indications for closed percutaneous short-term metallic osteosynthesis were developed and used in 76 patients (29.23%). Indications for percutaneous metallic osteosynthesis were as follows: 1) displacement of a fragment in the sagittal, frontal plane or to below more than 5 mm and rotation of the fragment more than 30 degrees (in 41 patients); 2) failure of closed reposition (in 21 patients); 3) vast hematomas, edemas of soft tissues (14 patients).
