dc.description.abstractThis study aims to compare the clinical and radiological results of patients who underwent plate-screw fixation and K-wire fixation in supracondylar femur fractures in the pediatric population. Patients aged 5-14 years suffering from supracondylar femoral fractures who underwent K-wire and plate-screw fixation were included in the study. Of all patients, follow-up period, age, fracture union time, gender, leg length discrepancy, and Knee Society Score (KSS) data were analyzed. The patients were divided into two groups; fixation with plate (Group A) and fixation with K-wires (Group B). Forty-two patients participated in the study. There was no significant difference between the two groups in terms of age, gender, and follow-up time (P > 0.05). When comparing the KSS results, no statistically significant difference was found between the two groups (P = 0.612). A statistically significant difference was detected between the two groups regarding union time (P = 0.01). When both groups were analyzed, no significant difference was found between the two groups in terms of functional results. Good results can be obtained in both plate-screw and K-wires in pediatric supracondylar femur fractures.en_US
