RESUMO
Objective To explore the clinical results and complications of the traditional skeletal traction through olecranon on treating the irreducible humeral supracondylar fracture in children with of ulna.Methods Ninety-eight children patients of humeral supracondylar fracture with failure of reduction manipulation were selected as our subjects.The towel clamp-skeletal traction through olecranon of ulna was applied as the additional treatment methods.Meanwhile 5-24 months' follow-up were performed.Results According to Flynn elbow joint function evaluation standard.The curative effect was as followed.71 patients (74.7％) got the excellent outcome,17 patients (17.9％) for good outcome and 7 patients for improved utcome(7.3％).Therefore,the ratio of excellent operation reached to 92.6％.Conclusion The towel clampskeletal traction through olecranon of ulna might be an effective method to treat reliable fixation regarding of its high curing rate and simple process of performance.
