Non-operative Treatment of Pediatric Lateral Humeral Condyle Fractures

NCT05096689 · Status: UNKNOWN · Phase: NA · Type: INTERVENTIONAL · Enrollment: 50

No results posted yet for this study

Summary

The diagnosis of LHCF is complicated by radiographic inability to show the full extent of the injury into the chondral (unossified) epiphysis. MRI gives a perfect view of these fractures. The safety and feasibility of non-operative treatment based on MRI findings in children with elbow fractures has not been investigated in a Danish setting. If safe and feasible, the use of MRI could dramatically lower the need for surgery in children with LHCF.
