Abstract

• The treatment of pediatric femoral shaft fractures remains controversial.
• Elastic stable intramedullary nailing has been proposed as an alternative for the treatment of pediatric femoral shaft fractures.
• This study was done at Menoufiya University Hospital between 2008 and 2011.
• 30 children with 30 femoral shaft fractures were included.
• ESINs were used in treating all the patients.
• Bipolar retrograde technique was used in all cases.
• Only one case (3.3%) was a poor result and the remainder was excellent or satisfactory.
• We recommend the use of ESINs in treating femoral shaft fracture in children between 5 and 15 years old.
