Comparative Study Between (MIPO)Submuscular Plate Fixation of Fracture Femur and Conservative Management With Thomas Splint in Children From 5 to 8 Years Old: A Randomized Clinical Study

This randomized clinical study compares the outcomes of two treatment methods for femur fractures in children aged 5 to 8 years: Minimally Invasive Plate Osteosynthesis (MIPO) using submuscular plate fixation and conservative management using a Thomas splint. The study evaluates the efficacy, safety, and recovery outcomes of both techniques. Key parameters include healing time, functional outcomes, complication rates, and patient and caregiver satisfaction. The findings aim to provide evidence-based recommendations for the optimal management of femur fractures in young children, balancing the benefits and risks of surgical versus non-surgical approaches.
