Type II Pediatric Supracondylar Humerus Fracture Management and Outcomes: A Prospective Multi-centre Cohort Study

The treatment of pediatric supracondylar humerus fractures is controversial, but despite the injury's high incidence there is a lack of high level evidence to guide operative versus non-operative decision making for displaced fractures with an intact posterior cortex (Gartland Type II). This study aims to prospectively compare clinical, functional, and radiographic outcomes between operatively and non-operatively treated patients using a prospective multi-centre cohort design.
