The aim of the study is to determine whether there is any difference in preventing loss of reduction between long-arm cast and long-arm splint following pediatric supracondylar humerus fracture surgery. Patients and Methods: We conducted a retrospective analysis of pediatric patients ...
In the cases of pediatric type I Monteggia fractures, good results are expected with closed reduction and long arm splint application in most cases, without operative treatment if the radial head is properly aligned and the ulna fracture is reduced with its length preserved. However, complete ...

The table can be rotated 90 or 180 degrees so that either the head or operative arm is in the center of the room. Either is acceptable so long as the C-arm can then enter from the head, angled in such a position that the C-arm can “swing through” to obtain an axillary view ...
movements, which can result in decreased pain [71]. In contrast, active treatment splints are only used in the growing phases of a child, typically ages 8–16 years of age, and are intended to add incremental height to the splint platform on the affected side of the arthritic joint, thus...
In contrast, active treatment splints are only used in the growing phases of a child, typically ages 8–16 years of age, and are intended to add incremental height to the splint platform on the affected side of the arthritic joint, thus potentially reducing asymmetry and need for surgical ...
