title: [Immediate surgical treatment of supracondylar fractures of the elbow in childhood].
abstract: The results of surgical treatment, in children, of 10 supracondylar factures of the humerus, complicated by vascular and neurological disturbances were so satisfactory that open reduction is proposed for all those cases with severe lesions and oedema requiring a prolonged period of continuous trans-skeletal traction even without neurological and vascular problems.
