Article Synopsis
- Supracondylar humerus fractures (SCHFs) in children are frequent and classified into Gartland types, with type 3 and 4 usually needing surgery; factors like injury severity and age affect the transition from closed to open reduction.
- A study of 159 children revealed that nearly 29% initially treated with closed reduction failed and required open reduction, with specific factors increasing this likelihood.
- The analysis found that while injuries varied, factors like medial spike angle and flexion type injuries significantly influenced the need for surgical intervention, while factors like sex and time to surgery did not show notable effects.
