Unicameral bone cyst (UBC) is a common disease in children. There are several different treatment modalities for this condition. Elastic stable intramedullary nail (ESIN) insertion alone was a minimally invasive method that allows for cyst drainage and fracture prevention; however, the treatment out...

Researchers in Liverpool and Oxford have found that surgery for a common elbow fracture in children offers no clinical benefit compared to non-surgical care. Published in The Lancet, the SCIENCE (Surgery or Cast for Injuries of the Epicondyle in Children's Elbows) study is the largest multi-...

A new multicenter study led by Zachary Binder, MD, associate professor of pediatrics, provides compelling evidence that an ultrasound-guided nerve block can dramatically improve pain control for children with femur fractures, while reducing their need for opioids by nearly 75%.

Running with your kids can be a great way to spend time together and build some healthy habits. But when is the right age to start?

Heading outside for some wintertime fun like sledding, throwing snowballs or ice skating can be a sure-fire cure for cabin fever. It's also a great way for kids to get the 60 minutes of daily exercise they need. Just be sure your child is dressed right-and know when it's time to come in and warm up.

Objective To compare cast immobilisation with surgery using open reduction and internal plate fixation for unimalleolar Weber B ankle fractures with a congruent mortise on initial radiography but deemed unstable by external rotation stress testing.

Objective: To describe patient-reported outcomes and complication patterns following morphology-guided posterior malleolus fixation for trimalleolar ankle fractures in a single National Health Service (NHS) teaching hospital.

Differentiating between a UCL and flexor-pronator injury is often difficult because the symptoms both produce pain in the medial elbow, and they frequently occur together. The purpose of this commentary is to describe the clinical thought process used to assist in making an accurate differential dia...

Technical variations in elbow ulnar collateral ligament reconstruction (UCLR) include graft source, graft/tunnel configuration, and humeral and ulnar fixation. While the biomechanical performance of various constructs has been reported, these studies have small sample sizes and compare at most a few...

Objective: To compare the short-term efficacy of arthroscopic capsular release combined with five-step manipulation under anaesthesia vs. five-step manipulation under anaesthesia alone for adhesive capsulitis.
