Question #25

Gartland II supracondylar fracture: which ones do you pin?

For a child with a Gartland II supracondylar humerus fracture, what radiographic or clinical findings make you choose CRPP rather than closed reduction and casting? Do you distinguish strongly between IIA and IIB when making the decision?

Question #24

How much angulation do you accept in paediatric both-bone forearm fractures?

We know remodeling depends heavily on age and fracture level, but what limits do you actually use clinically? For an 8–10-year-old with a midshaft radius/ulna fracture, how much residual angulation and rotation would make you re-manipulate?
