Study of Residuals Deformities After Diaphyseal Femoral Fracture in Children Treated by Skin Traction

Recruiting now

Conditions studied: EOS

In brief

Diaphyseal femoral fracture in children \<6 years old are treated by the skin traction technique. As demonstrated by numerous studies, given the significant potential for bone remodeling in young children, remodeling (excluding rotational disorder) allows anatomical correction. The aim of this study is to confirm, via EOS imaging, the absence of residual deformities 3 years after the end of treatment in children treated in Amiens hospital department.
