Hoverboards were designed for making our daily life easier. However, lots of patients admitted to emergency services due to these devices require a high level of balance, coordination and strength. Traumatic injuries are more common especially in children and young adults. Forearm fractures are one of the important trauma outcomes in the pediatric age group. Although supracondylar or forearm fractures are common, we rarely encounter a combination of both, defined as floating arm fractures. A 9-year-old boy falling from a hoverboard had supracondylar humerus fractures accompanied by olecranon and distal Radius fractures in the same arm. A temporary long arm splint was applied to the patient who was transferred to the orthopedic clinic and surgical operation was planned for stabilization. In our case, we aimed to discuss the coexistence of olecranon and distal radius fracture accompanying ipsilateral supracondylar humerus fracture in a child hoverboard user.. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR] |
