Abstract

Distal radius fractures are the most common fractures in children and account for about 25% of all fractures. The main mechanism of occurrence is a fall on the outstretched hand. These fractures usually occur as a result of accidents, and rarely because of injuries and pathological conditions. In this retrospective study, we analyzed 182 hospital-treated distal radius fractures, of which 61 fractures (29.8%) represent epiphysiolysis. The causes are divided into three groups: fall 124 (68.1%), injuries in traffic 50 (27.5%), and strikes 8 (4.4%). Falls usually occur during sport or game playing 72 (39.6%), and traffic injuries occur during cycling 30 (52%) and roller skating 25 (43%). Children were most often injured in the areas of sports and recreational activities 115 (63%), on the street 38 (21%), and at the school 16 (9%). In our children the highest incidence of distal radius fractures was during sports and recreational activities, and the lowest in school and at home.

Abstract in Croatian

Prijelomi distalnog dijela radijusa najčešći su prijelomi u djece i čine oko 25% svih prijeloma. Glavni mehanizam nastanka je pad na ispruženu ruku. Ovi prijelomi najčešće nastaju kao posljedica nesretnih slučajeva, a rjeđe zbog ozljeda i patoloških stanja. U ovom retrospektivnom istraživanju analizirali smo 182 bolnički liječena prijeloma distalnog radijusa, od čega 61 (29,8%) otpada na epifizeolize. Uzroci su podijeljeni u tri skupine: pad 124 (68,1%), ozljeda u prometu 50 (27,5%) i udarac 8 (4,4%). Padovi najčešće nastaju tijekom igre ili sporta – 72 (39,6%), a prometne ozljede tijekom vožnje bicikla – 30 (52%) i koturaljki – 25 (43%). Djeca su se najčešće ozljeđivala na mjestima sportske i rekreacijske aktivnosti – 115 (63%), na ulici 38 (21%) te u školi 16 (9%). U naše djece najveća je pojavnost prijeloma distalnog radijusa tijekom sportskih i rekreacijskih aktivnosti, a najmanja u školi i kod kuće.
