Is long arm splinting sufficient in the nonsurgical follow-up of pediatric Type I and Type IIa supracondylar humerus fractures?

Splinting and casting yielded comparable clinical and radiological outcomes in nonsurgically managed Modified Gartland type I and IIa supracondylar humerus fractures. However, splinting stands out as a strong alternative due to its ease of application and lower complication rates.
