Objective:To study the efficacy of closed reduction with a self-developed T-frame plus robotic navigation in the treatment of supracondylar humeral fractures of Gartland type Ⅲ in children.Methods:A retrospective study was conducted to analyze the data of 67 children with supracondylar fracture of Gartland type Ⅲ who had undergone surgery at The Fifth Hospital of Harbin from January 2023 to March 2024. There were 35 males and 32 females with an age of (5.6±1.2) years. The children were divided into 2 groups according to different surgical methods. The control group (33 cases) was treated by closed reduction and internal fixation with percutaneous K-wire and the study group (34 cases) by closed reduction with a self-developed T-frame plus robotic navigation for internal fixation with percutaneous K-wire. The operation time, anatomical reduction, intraoperative fluoroscopy frequency, intraoperative needle adjustment, Flynn score at the last follow-up and complications were compared between the 2 groups.Results:There was no significant difference in the preoperative general data between the 2 groups, indicating comparability ( P>0.05). All children were followed up for (6.3±2.5) months after surgery. There were no significant differences in operation time, Flynn score at the last follow-up or incidence of complications between the study and the control groups ( P>0.05). The rate of anatomical reduction in the study group (97.1%, 33/34) was significantly higher than that in the control group (54.5%, 18/33), and the intraoperative fluoroscopy frequency [(11.6±2.5) times] and needle adjustment (5.6±1.2) times in the study group were significantly lower than those in the control group [(37.2±2.1) times and (28.7±3.9) times] ( P<0.05). Conclusions:In the treatment of supracondylar humeral fractures of Gartland type Ⅲ in children, our self-developed T-frame can play a good role in fracture reduction and temporary fixation, avoiding iatrogenic secondary injuries caused by freguent reduction and adjustment of needle threading in the course of robotic navigation.
