Management of Open Supracondylar Humeral Fracture in Children: A Case Report and Literature Review.

Open supracondylar humeral fractures (SHFs) are rare, and there have been few papers specifically addressing their management. In this report, we describe the management and 27-month outcomes of an open SHF. A healthy eight-year-old boy presented with open SHF of the right elbow and underwent percutaneous lateral fixation using two Kirschner wires (K-wire) after irrigation and debridement (I&D) through an anterior approach.
