7、ximal.儿童桡骨颈骨折治疗Mechanism 2 main mechanisms of injury were described in literature.In the more common type,a radial neck fracture occurs after a fall with the elbow in extension and valgus,resulting in a fracture with valgus angulation.In the rare type,the mechanism is a fall with the elbow flexed,wh

9、ulation failed.in general,outcomes after open reduction are worse than those obtained after closed reduction.after open reduction,the incidence of complication,is higher than those after closed reduction.open reduction causes additional damage to the soft tissue,with fibrous adhesions and loss of range of motion.Some radial neck fractures are impossible to reduce with closed methods,requiring open reduction儿童桡骨颈骨折治疗儿童桡骨颈骨折治疗
