Abstract

Forearm fractures are among the most common orthopaedic injuries in chilhood. Segmenter forearm fractures are seen in adults following high enery trauma whereas it is extremely rare in children. Herein, we report a 12 year boy who had four segmented ulnar fracture, treated with surgical intervention and discuss the possible mechanism of injury.

Özet

Önkol kırıkları çocukluk çağında en sık karşılaşılan ortopedik yaralanmalardandır. Segmenter önkol kırıkları erişkinlerde yüksek enerjili yaralanmalar sonrası sıklıkla görülmesine karşın çocuklarda son derece nadirdir. Bu yazıda, 12 yaşında dört parçalı segmenter ulna kırığı olan ve cerrahi tedavi ile iyi sonuç alınan bir çocuk sunulmuş ve olası yaralanma mekanizmaları tartışılmıştır.
