Elastic Nailing for fractures in children and Adolescents
Elastic pinning is a minimally invasive technique used to treat fractures in children and adolescents. It consists of inserting a flexible rod through the bone marrow, which acts as an internal support for the fracture. This method allows the bone to continue growing and remodeling as the child grows, avoiding the need for multiple surgeries as the child increases in size.
