Abstract

Introduction: Supracondylar fracture of the humerus are the most common fracture in 
children between the age of 5-7 years and the most common pediatric fracture requiring 
surgery supracondylar fracture may have significant complication including nerve injury, 
vascular injury and compartment syndrome 
Aims and Objectives: To find mechanical stability in cross and lateral Kirshner wire 
fixation. To find radiological outcome in cross and lateral Kirshner wire fixation. To study 
iatrogenic ulnar nerve injury in cross Kirshner wire fixation
