Abstract

Supracondylar humerus fractures in children account for up to two-thirds of pediatric elbow injuries that require hospitalization. Supra-condylar fractures usually occur due to falls from height, from sports, or through acts of leisure. The estimation of their incidence is about 177.3 per 100000. Here, we report a successfully managed case of flexion-type supra-condylar fracture of the humerus with ulnar nerve injury without any complications.
