[Fractures of the head of the humeral condyle in children and characteristics of their treatment].
The author has examined 165 children with FHCH. A method of surgical treatment of FHCH has been worked out and applied in 37 children; its essence consists in the open reposition of the fractures and the fixation of the fragment of the head with an original construction compression device which provides the possibility of making early active movements preventing rigidity in the elbow joint. The method does not envisage the necessity of fixation of the extremity with a plaster bandage and reduces the period of clinical and general treatment (by 18 and 14 days respectively). The economic damage making 139.33 roubles per one patient has been reduced. The rational character of using the new method of surgical treatment of FHCH has been confirmed.
