Single Bone Intramedullary Fixation of the Radius in Pediatric Both Bone Forearm Fractures Using Straight Stainless Steel Kirschner Wire: A Cross-sectional Study on Radiological and Clinical Feature

CONCLUSION: In both bone forearm fractures in children, open reduction and internal fixation of only the radius with a stainless steel straight Kirschner wire could be a promising method with good results. This retrograde technique of intramedullary fixation is a simple and cost-effective method with minimal complications and acceptable outcomes in children aged 4-12 years.PMID:38577508 | PMC:PMC10989728 | DOI:10.22038/ABJS.2023.71219.3335
