Abstract

Background: Femoral shaft fractures in children are treated by a variety of methods such as traction, spica cast, plate, external fixator and nails. In recent years Elastic Stable INTRAMEDULLARY Nailing (ESIN) has became popular. This is a report of our experience with such a fixation system.Methods: During a 2-year period (2003-2005) 32 femoral shaft fractures in children between 5 to 10 years old were treated with ESIN. Demographic data, fracture and fixation characteristics and complications were studied with a 7-months average follow-up.Results: All 32 patients started ambulating one week after surgery, had an average 4 days of hospitalization, and had full weight-bearing ambulation in 6 weeks. All cases healed in 10 weeks-on average. Full knee motion returned in 8 weeks. Three cases had malunion either virus or valgus, misalignment or 1-2 centimeters of shortening. The most common complaint was pain around the nail insertion sites for the first two weeks.Conclusion: ESIN is valuable and dependable method for non-comminuted femoral shaft FRACTURE FIXATION in 5-10 years old patients.
