Severe displaced humerus fractures and complications often require surgical intervention.
2.
Most humerus fractures are nondisplaced and will heal within a few weeks if the arm is immobilized.
3.
A normal carrying angle is approximately 5-15? and so when reducing paediatric supracondylar humerus fractures, a deviation of more than 5?from the contralateral side should not be accepted.
4.
The "'Gartland classification "'is a system of categorizing supracondylar humerus fractures, clinically useful as it predicts the likelihood of associated neurovascular injury, such as anterior interosseous nerve neurapraxia or brachial artery disruption.
