PROSPECTIVE STUDY IN TREATMENT OF LONG BONE FRACTURE IN CHILDREN BY TITANIUM ELASTIC NAILING STABILIZATION

To evaluate the results of operative treatment – outcome, safety and efficacy of Titanium Elastic Nailing for the treatment of
diaphyseal fractures of long bones in children in the age group between 5 to 16 years.
Titanium elastic nail (TEN) fixation was originally meant as an ideal treatment method for femoral fractures, but was gradually
applied to other long bone fractures in children, as it represents a compromise between conservative and surgical therapeutic
approaches with satisfactory results and minimal complications.
