Outcome of Pediatric shaft Radius-Ulna Fractures managed with Titanium Elastic Nailing System

Aims and objectives: To study the functional outcome of TENS in Pediatric shaft radiusulna fracture.Introduction: Symmetrical bracing action of elastic nails inserted into the metaphysis, thatbears against the inner bone at three points is the principal of the titanium elastic nailing.Early stability to the involved bone fragments is the benefit of this method and it permitsearly mobilization and returns to the normal activities of the patients, with very lowcomplication rate.Materials and methods: A retrospective study of 40 pediatric patients with closed and opengrade 1 shaft radius-ulna fracture carried out at our institute between 2018-2019 treated withTENS and observed for a period of minimum 1.5 years.Conclusion : It can be concluded that TENS nailing in pediatric shaft radius-ulna fractures isan excellent modality of treatment and has very low complication rate.
