Abstract:
Objective:To explore the risk factors of ultrasound-guided closed reduction failure of unstable lateral humeral condylar fractures in children.Methods:A retrospective case-control study was conducted to analyze the clinical data of 158 children with unstable lateral humeral condyle fractures admitted to Anhui Provincial Children′s Hospital from January 2022 to August 2023, including 102 males and 56 females, aged 1-14 years [5(4, 8)years]. The patients were divided into reduction success group ( n=136) and reduction failure group ( n=22) according to the results of ultrasound-guided closed reduction. The gender, age, body mass index, injury side, time from injury to surgery, direction of sagittal plane displacement of the fracture fragment, Milch classification, Song classification, concomitant subcutaneous bruising or not, nighttime surgery or not, surgeons′ lack of experience or not, and concomitant elbow dislocation or not were recorded in both groups. Univariate analysis and binary Logistic regression analysis were used to evaluate and identify the independent risk factors for ultrasound-guided closed reduction failure of unstable lateral humeral condylar fractures in children. Results:Univariate analysis showed that there were significant differences in the time from injury to surgery, direction of sagittal plane displacement of the fracture fragment, and surgeons′ lack of experience or not between the reduction success group and reduction failure group ( P<0.01), while there were no significant differences in gender, age, body mass index, injury side, Milch classification, Song classification, concomitant subcutaneous bruising or not, nighttime surgery or not, or concomitant elbow dislocation or not between the two groups ( P>0.05). Binary Logistic regression analysis showed that the time from injury to surgery≥5 days ( OR=1.47, 95% CI 1.17, 1.86, P<0.01), sagittal anterior displacement of the fracture fragment ( OR=7.07, 95% CI, 1.79, 27.98, P<0.01) and surgeons′ lack of experience ( OR=4.67, 95% CI, 1.21, 18.05, P<0.05) were significantly correlated with ultrasound-guided closed reduction failure of unstable lateral humeral condylar fractures in children. Conclusion:The time from injury to surgery ≥5 days, sagittal anterior displacement of the fracture fragment and surgeons′ lack of experience are the independent risk factors for ultrasound-guided closed reduction failure of unstable lateral humeral condylar fractures in children.
