Abstract

According to Flynn’s criteria, the results were 26 patients (86.7%) had excellent results, 3 patients (10%) had good results, and 1 patient (3.3%) had a fair result. The posterior route is an attractive alternative method for fixation of supracondylar fractures of the humerus in children as it achieves a good stabilization and reduces the rate of ulnar nerve damage.These fractures carry the highest risk for long standing complications because of the young age of the children, the marked displacement, and the risks of neurovascular compromise from the injury or iatrogenic from the treatment.So, these fractures require accurate diagnosis, urgent and correct treatment, and avoidance of complications with proper care. In this study Kapandji technique was used in reduction and fixation of supracondylar Gartland type III fractures as it has the advantage of achieving a good stabilization and reducing the rate of ulnar nerve damage
