Abstract
Introduction. In the structure of the general morbidity rate, trauma and diseases of the musculoskeletal system take the third place after diseases of the respiratory system and pathology of the gastrointestinal tract. In recent years, an intensive indices characterizing the trauma prevalence rate has increased by 1.9 times. Aim. to improve the results of the management of juxta- and intraarticular fractures in children by means of the use of biodegradable implants. Material and methods. Over the period from 2014 to 2016 in the Department of Traumatology of the Research Institute of Emergency Pediatric Surgery and Traumatology there were examined and treated 108 children with juxta- and intra-articular fractures of the upper and lower extremities aged from 5 to 17 years, with an average age of 13.3 ± 1.8, including 38 (34.96 %) girls and 70 (65.04%) boys. All patients underwent complex examination including laboratory and instrumental methods: complete blood count (CBC), Common Urine Examination (CUE), X-Ray, spiral computed tomography, MRI. Results. To describe injuries and determine the tactics of the treatment of juxta- and intra-articular fractures in children, there was used the fracture classification system delivered by Robert B. Salter and W. Robert Harris. All children with metaphyseal fractures of the second, third, and fourth types underwent surgical treatment with the use of biodegradable implants. The postoperative period proceeded without complications. Conclusion. The use of biodegradable screws in juxta- and intra-articular fractures in children is a safe and effective method of treatment, reducing its timing by eliminating repeated surgical intervention.
