Article Synopsis
- Tibia shaft fractures make up 15% of fractures in children and are usually treated with casting, but refractures can delay activities and cause frustration for families.
- A study analyzed the records of pediatric patients treated nonoperatively from 2000 to 2016, focusing on the rates of refracture within 18 months of the initial injury.
- Out of 64 patients studied, only one experienced a refracture, resulting in a low rate of about 1.5%, supporting the effectiveness of conservative treatment methods.
