Early versus delayed reduction and pinning of type III displaced supracondylar fractures of the humerus in children: a comparative study.
J Orthop Trauma. 1999; (1): 51-5
To determine whether children with Type III displaced supracondylar fractures of the humerus that were pinned in a delayed fashion, defined as more than eight hours after fracture, had a greater need for open reduction than patients with similar fractures pinned more urgently, within eight hours after the trauma. Also, to determine whether those patients treated later fared any worse than patients treated earlier.
