Does the fracture line position relative to the olecranon fossa affect surgical difficulty and outcomes in pediatric supracondylar humerus fractures?

Fractures located proximal to the olecranon fossa are more unstable and technically demanding, resulting in longer operation times and more intraoperative pinning attempts. Among high-level fractures, oblique types are especially prone to technical challenges and increased revision rates, highlighting the importance of fracture morphology in surgical planning.

Abstract

Fractures located proximal to the olecranon fossa are more unstable and technically demanding, resulting in longer operation times and more intraoperative pinning attempts. Among high-level fractures, oblique types are especially prone to technical challenges and increased revision rates, highlighting the importance of fracture morphology in surgical planning.
