Femoral Shaft Fractures in Children: Exploring Treatment Outcomes and Implications.

Introduction: Femoral shaft fractures significantly impact children and families, posing a significant challenge for pediatric patients. The prevalence of limb shortening in femur shaft fractures treated with hip spica casting in our group, however, has not been the subject of many recent investigations.

Aims: By comparing the prevalence of limb shortening to various age groups and common pediatric injury patterns, this research seeks to close this information gap.
