  ABSTRACT: Management of femoral diaphyseal fractures in the age group of 6-16 years is controversial. There has been a resurgence worldwide for operative fixation in general and TENS (titanium elastic nailing system) in particular. We performed a retrospective review of pediatric femoral fractures treated by TENS. The data was collected from cases operated between July 2007 and June 2010 at Sohar Hospital, Oman. We had treated 16 children (14 boys and 2 girls) with TENS for femoral shaft fractures. The mean age was 12.5 years (range 7-16 years) and mean hospital stay was 7.6 days (range 4-15 days). All fractures were radio-graphically united at a mean of 7.5 weeks (range 5-10 weeks). The nails were removed in 14 children after a mean of 22 weeks (range 6-38 weeks) postoperatively. At follow-up, we had found leg length discrepancy of 1 cm in one child and 10° of internal rotational deformity in another. No angular deformity had occurred. Titanium elastic nailing seems to be a safe and effective method for the treatment of femoral shaft fractures in children between 7 and 16 years of age.

  ABSTRACT: A 60-year-old farmer came to the accident and emergency department complaining of traumatic amputation of distal part of right thumb. On examination, there was a circumferential wound located at the base of right thumbnail with injury to both neurovascular bundles and fracture of distal part of distal phalanx with the distal part hanging by volar skin only. The wound was irrigated and the distal part terminalised with direct loose skin closure. Discussion with the patient about the scenario of trauma revealed a mechanism of injury which may appear unique.
