J PEDIATR ORTHOP , 2002, vol. 11, n° 3 (Part B), p. 219-228 Doc n°: 108726 Localisation : Documentation IRR Descripteurs : DE361 - TRAITEMENT CHIRURGICAL / HANCHE Although hip fractures make up less than 1% of all children's fractures, they commonly produce late complications such as avascular necrosis, non-union, coxa vara, and premature physeal closure. A retrospective review of 17 patients with a mean age of 11 years (range, 7-14) and with a mean follow-up of 6 years (range, 2.5-12) who underwent open reduction and internal fixation for hip fractures was performed. There were 10 transcervical and five cervicotrochanteric fractures, one transepiphyseal fracture, and one intertrochanteric fracture. A total of 25 operations were performed. Overall, the complication rate was 59%, with some patients having more than one complication. Seven patients healed without any complications or sequelae.
