Abstract
Background: Lateral Humeral condyle fracture is the most common intra-articular fracture in pediatric elbow.
Objectives: The present study aimed to analyze the differences between X-ray and magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) in the evaluation of the stability of pediatric lateral humeral condyle fracture and the degree of fracture displacement.
Methods: A total of 78 patients with acute elbow trauma were selected and hospitalized in our orthopedic department from July 2018-July 2019. All patients were examined with X-ray and MRI. The sensitivity and specificity of X-ray and MRI in the diagnosis of lateral humeral condyle fracture and the integrity of the trochlear cartilage chain fracture were calculated. The X-ray and MRI were examined respectively to check the value of lateral and posterior fracture space of lateral humeral condyle fracture.
Results: Callus repair was observed according to the observation of fracture line during operation or the follow-up imaging examination of conservative treatment. It was confirmed that out of 78 patients with elbow joint trauma, 72 cases were diagnosed with the fracture of lateral condyle of humerus, and the other 6 patients were cured without fracture signs. The sensitivity of MRI in the diagnosis of pediatric lateral condylar fracture was 100%, which was significantly higher than that of X-ray (88.89%) (P
