Surgical treatment of carpal and hand injuries in children.
Most carpal and hand injuries in children are treated nonsurgically. However, surgical treatment is often required for certain clinical situations. Complications resulting from pediatric hand fractures, dislocations, and soft-tissue injuries are most commonly caused by a failure to identify and treat an injury requiring surgery.
