PURPOSE OF REVIEW: Fractures about the knee are a common occurrence in children, and characteristics of the growing skeleton make children susceptible to specific fractures that do not occur in adults. The purpose of this review is to help the clinician to recognize, understand, and appropriately treat these injuries. RECENT FINDINGS: Pediatric knee fractures are diagnosed by a comprehensive history and physical examination supplemented with appropriate imaging modalities. Depending on the injury, treatment may include immobilization, arthroscopic treatment, or open reduction and internal fixation. SUMMARY: A thorough understanding of pediatric knee fractures will enable clinicians to appropriately manage these injuries and provide patients with a rapid return to preinjury activities. 相似文献

The aim of this study was to assess physeal fractures of the pediatric knee identified by MR imaging and to describe the
MR findings of such fractures. The authors reviewed 315 consecutive pediatric knee MR examinations done to assess for traumatic
injury. The MR images were reviewed for evidence of physeal fracture. Fractures were classified by the Salter-Harris system,
and associated findings and injuries were noted. Plain radiographs and medical records were reviewed. Seven distal femoral
physeal fractures (Salter II, n = 6; Salter III, n = 1) and two proximal tibia physeal fractures (Salter III, n = 1; complex Salter IV, n = 1) were identified. Magnetic resonance demonstrated widening of a portion of the physis with visualization of a metaphyseal/epiphyseal
fracture line. Periosteal elevation was observed in six cases. Four patients had associated ligamentous or meniscal injuries.
Plain radiographs were available for review in eight patients. Bone abnormalities suggesting fracture were evident in six
of eight patients; however, the fracture was fully delineated in only one patient. The diagnosis or confirmation of fracture
by MR changed clinical management in seven of eight patients in whom follow-up was available. Physeal fractures of the pediatric
knee are occasionally diagnosed by MR. Magnetic resonance provides improved delineation of non-displaced physeal fractures
of the knee, while simultaneously allowing for evaluation of soft tissue structures.

The aim of this study was to document and analyze ultrasonographic (US) findings in different types of pediatric fractures. Thirty-nine patients, aged between 1 and 14 years, with a fracture were included in the study. Patients were classified as complete or incomplete fractures. Greenstick fractures, torus fractures and plastic deformations were considered as incomplete fractures. Ultrasonographic findings (subperiosteal hematoma, bending, cortical disruption, and reverberating echo) were analysed for each type of fracture. Subperiosteal hematoma was present in all patients in the study. Bending sign was present in all patients in the incomplete fracture group, but not present in complete fractures. Cortical disruption and reverberating echo were present in all patients with complete and greenstick fractures. In conclusion, whether the fracture is complete or incomplete, subperiosteal hematoma, together with a cortical disruption, bending sign, or reverberating echo shown on US can confirm the fracture diagnosis in children. 相似文献

The clinical presentation of pediatric pelvic fractures 总被引:6,自引:0,他引:6
BACKGROUND: Few studies have addressed the presentation and clinical impact of pediatric pelvic fractures. We sought to describe pediatric blunt trauma patients with pelvic fracture (PF) and to evaluate the sensitivity and specificity of physical examination at presentation for diagnosis. METHODS: Retrospective analysis of all PF and control (NPF) patients from our pediatric institution over an 8-year period. RESULTS: A total of 174 patients (88 PF, 86 NPF) were included. Median patient age was 8 years (range, 3 months to 18 years), with 54% males. The most common mechanisms of injury for PF patients were automobile-related accidents (75%). There were 140 patients (87%) who were transported by air or ground medical services. At presentation, approximately 16% of PF patients had a Glasgow Coma score of <15, a mean Revised Trauma Score of 7.49, and a median Injury Severity Score (ISS) of 9. Thirty-one PF patients (35%) had an ISS of >15 indicating severe, multiple injuries. Sixty-eight PF patients (77%) had severe isolated injuries (Abbreviated Injury Scale 1990 value of >3); 11% of PF patients required transfusions, and 2% died. Fifteen PF patients (17% ) had no pelvic ring disruption; 39 (43%) had a single pelvic ring fracture, 22 (2%) had two pelvic ring fractures, 2 (2%) had acetabular fractures, and 10 (11%) had a combination of pelvic fractures. An abnormal physical examination of the pelvis was noted in 81 patients with PF (92% sensitivity, 95% confidence interval [CI] = 0.89-0.95), 15 NPF patients had an abnormal examination (79% specificity, 95% CI = 0.74-0.84). The positive predictive value of the pelvis examination was 0.84, and the negative predictive value was 0.89. The most common abnormal pelvis examination finding was pelvic tenderness in 65 PF patients (73%). A total of seven PF patients had a normal examination of the pelvis; four had a depressed level of consciousness (defined as GCS <15), and six patients had a distracting injury. CONCLUSIONS: Pediatric blunt trauma patients with pelvic fracture represent a severely injured population but generally have lower transfusion rates and mortality than noted in adult studies. The pelvis examination appears to be sensitive and specific in this retrospective study. However, an altered level of consciousness and/or distracting injuries may affect examination sensitivity and specificity. Based on this retrospective study, we cannot advocate eliminating pelvic radiographs in the severely injured, blunt trauma patient. Prospective studies are recommended. 相似文献

PURPOSE OF REVIEW: Femoral shaft fractures are among the most common fractures in children. Depending on the patient's age, fracture location, pattern, mechanism of injury, and associated injuries, several different treatment options exist. The purpose of this review is to discuss these different clinical situations and the recommended treatment methods, as well as to characterize the latest literature and recommendations. RECENT FINDINGS: In the past several years, there have been significant changes in the approach to the treatment of pediatric femoral shaft fractures, particularly in school-aged children. Young children have traditionally been treated conservatively with good results, and this method is still currently advocated. Adolescents over the age of 12 are generally treated with rigid intramedullary rods. However, in children between the ages of 5 and 12, new surgical treatment modalities have been tested with good outcomes, and, as new data emerge, these methods are becoming preferable to conservative treatment. SUMMARY: Children who sustain femoral shaft fractures can present difficult challenges to both orthopedists and pediatricians. A recent shift in treatment in children between ages of 5 and 12 from nonoperative to surgical intervention has led to shorter hospital stays and earlier return to activity with reliable fracture healing. 相似文献

The knee is the joint which is most commonly imaged by MRI in children. With increasing participation in competitive sports at younger ages, knee injuries are common in children. While older adolescents have patterns of injury similar to those seen in adults, injuries seen in skeletally immature patients differ. In this essay, the MR findings of injuries of the skeletally immature knee are highlighted. 相似文献

PURPOSE OF REVIEW: To provide an update on surgical methods of pediatric femur fracture treatment. RECENT FINDINGS: Multiple studies describe successful results with elastic nail stabilization of pediatric femur fractures. The indications and risk factors for complications are being more clearly defined. Trochanteric entry-locked intramedullary nailing and submuscular bridge plating have also recently been reported to produce excellent outcomes in a high percentage of patients. Older (>11 years) patients, heavier patients and patients with length-unstable fracture patterns may be best treated with locked nailing or plating. SUMMARY: Pediatric femur fractures can be successfully treated by a number of methods. This review examines the recent literature to provide some guidelines for choosing amongst the options for surgical stabilization. 相似文献
