  • Title: [Treatment of open fractures in children (author's transl)].
    Author: Vinz H.
    Journal: Zentralbl Chir; 1980; 105(22):1483-93. PubMed ID: 7210991.
    Abstract:
    Open fractures in children with soft tissue injuries of second and third degree generally require osteosynthesis. Minimal osteosynthesis is sufficient. Articular fractures and juxtaarticular fractures are stabilized with Kirschner wires. In shaft fractures of long bones short SAO plates are used in most cases. For shaft fractures of the upper extremity alternatively intramedullary osteosynthesis with Kirschner wires or Rush pins may be applied. Indication, osteosynthesis, and operating technique are discussed.
