description Abstract To analyze the curative effect of varying treatment types in 75 pediatric cases of radial neck fracture and explore the prognosis-related factors. Clinical data of 75 children with radial neck fractures treated in our hospital from January 2015 to December 2016 were retrospectively collected. The relationship between age, fracture type, treatment method, X-ray examination after reduction, and prognosis was analyzed. Age was related to prognosis. The excellent and good rate of treatment was 89.25% for children with age ≤ 10 and 57.89% for children over 10 years old. The type of fracture was closely related to the curative effect, 95.0% of O’Brien type I fractures had good curative effects, and the excellent and good rates of O’Brien II type and III type fractures were 87.0 and 66.7%, respectively. According to the type of fracture, the excellent and good rate of patients treated with plaster fixation was the highest (96.42%), but the excellent and good rate was 72.3% in the patients who needed to be reduced by Kirschner wire or elastic intramedullary nail. Although open reduction is superior to closed reduction in imaging evaluation, the excellent and good rate is only 50%.The prognosis of children with radial neck fracture is related to age, type of fracture, and treatment method. In pediatric patients less than 10 years with light, shifted fractures, the excellent and good prognosis rate is higher with less operative intervention. We recommend treating patients with closed reduction and elastic nail fixation according to different fracture types.
