Type Of Injury

The three most common elbow fractures classically reported in pediatric orthopedic literature are supracondylar (50–70%), lateral condylar (17–34%), and medial epicondylar fractures (10%). The mechanism of injury varies, but the most commonly described mechanism involves a fall on an outstretched hand with varus, valgus or rotational force or a combination thereof. The vectors of force and the degree of chondro-osseous development dictate the type of injury incurred. A review of the literature was conducted to see the most frequent injuries and complications.

Displaced Fracture

Displaced fracture of the distal third of the clavicle usually occurs after direct trauma to the shoulder and typically results in superior displacement of the proximal fragment. We report a previously undescribed case of downward displacement of the clavicle caused by a fall on an outstretched hand, and we suggest the mechanism of injury.

The Relationship

From previous researches, studies on the forward fall had focused on the relationship between the joint loading and position of the forearm and elbow. Previous studies also stressed the importance of energy absorption by the shoulder and elbow during the forward fall. However, the effects of different tilting angles on joint loading of the upper extremity had not been presented. This study investigated the effects of different tilting angles on joint loading of the upper extremity during fall on an outstretched hand. The absorbed energy at Ts, T1, T2 and Te were analyzed. Ten healthy young males were selected in this study. Subjects were adjusted to different trunk tilting angles of 0°, 10°, 20° and 30°with a custom-made suspension system with an outstretched hand of 5 cm height above the ground. The expert vision motion system with 6 CCD cameras and one force plate were used to collect kinetics and kinematics data. The results showed that shoulder would absorb the most impact energy and followed by wrist and elbow. The time period at T2 to Te absorbed more energy in every joint.
