- W4328129069 abstract "Introduction Tibia fractures are children's most typical lower limb fractures affecting their general and mental well-being. This study aims to evaluate the management and outcomes of displaced tibia fractures. Methods A retrospective study was conducted to review children up to 16 years of age with displaced tibia shaft fractures who received treatment in our department from January 2011 to December 2021. Fractures managed in the operating theatre and patients who completed follow-up until fracture healing were included in the study. Treatment procedures were assessed, and outcome was measured by hospital stays, complications and revision procedure incidences. Results The study included 74 patients (75 fractures, including one re-fracture). The patient's ages ranged from 2 to 16 years (median age: 11 years). Seven patients sustained open fractures (Gustilo I, II). Tibia diaphysis was the most common site of involvement. A total of 43 patients were treated by manipulation under anaesthesia and cast. Surgical fixation was directly proportional to increasing age (p<0.05). Overall, 74% of patients were treated by fixation when age was >10 years. Three patients needed conversion of casting to surgical fixation. One patient had re-fracture following a secondary injury after six months of initial tibia shaft fracture treated by casting. Five patients had complications, including delayed union, pin site and surgical site infections. Antibiotics were adequate to manage infections except in one patient who needed debridement. The average hospital stay was three days. The median number of follow-up X-rays was 4. The planned removal of all flexible nails, and the circular frame was done between 2 and 15 months, except for one that had delayed union. All the patients underwent clinical and radiological union at the end of the follow-up. Conclusion The treatment plan was dependent on the individual need of the patient and the fracture pattern. Children older than 10 years were more likely to undergo surgical fixation. The majority of fractures were treated by manipulation and cast in operating theatres. Better logistic support in the emergency department could reduce the burden on the operating theatre." @default.
