Journal ArticleDOI

Differentiating between septic arthritis and transient synovitis of the hip in children: an evidence-based clinical prediction algorithm.

Mininder S. Kocher, +2 more
- 01 Dec 1999 - 
TL;DR: This study retrospectively reviewed the cases of children who were evaluated at a major tertiary-care children's hospital between 1979 and 1996 and constructed a set of independent multivariate predictors that had excellent diagnostic performance in differentiating between septic arthritis and transient synovitis of the hip in children.
Journal ArticleDOI

Titanium elastic nails for pediatric femur fractures: a multicenter study of early results with analysis of complications.

J M Flynn, +5 more
- 01 Jan 2001 - 
TL;DR: As indications, implantation technique, and aftercare are refined, TENs may prove to be the ideal implant to stabilize many pediatric femur fractures, avoiding the prolonged immobilization and complications of traction and spica casting.
Journal ArticleDOI

Supracondylar Fractures of the Humerus in Children.

Norman Y. Otsuka, +1 more
- 01 Jan 1997 - 
TL;DR: The treatment of type II and type III supracondylar fractures of the humerus in children with closed reduction and percutaneous pinning has dramatically lowered the rate of complications from this injury.
Journal ArticleDOI

Validation of a clinical prediction rule for the differentiation between septic arthritis and transient synovitis of the hip in children.

Mininder S. Kocher, +4 more
- 01 Aug 2004 - 
TL;DR: The previously published clinical prediction rule for the differentiation between septic arthritis and transient synovitis of the hip in children demonstrated diminished, but nevertheless very good, diagnostic performance in a new patient population.
Journal ArticleDOI

Lateral entry compared with medial and lateral entry pin fixation for completely displaced supracondylar humeral fractures in children. A randomized clinical trial.

Mininder S. Kocher, +14 more
- 01 Apr 2007 - 
TL;DR: Both lateral entryPin fixation and medial and lateral entry pin fixation are effective in the treatment of completely displaced (type-III) extension supracondylar fractures of the humerus in children.
