    Title translation Slipped capital femoral epiphysis.
    Abstract Background: In slipped capital femoral epiphysis (SCFE), the femoral head slides in an anterosuperior direction along the growth plate. The femoral head remains in the acetabulum. The pathogenesis of SCFE is multifactorial. An important predisposing factor is obesity.
    Problem: Epiphysiolysis can compromise the blood supply to the epiphysis and osteonecrosis of the femoral head may result.
    Diagnostics and prognosis: Conventional radiography represents the first diagnostic step. The long-term prognosis of the disease depends on the residual deformity of the femoral head and in the worst case may result in early osteoarthritis of the hip joint.

    Abstract Purpose of the study: Whole-body computed tomography is accepted as the standard procedure in the primary diagnostic of polytraumatised adults in the emergency room. Up to now there is still controversial discussion about the same algorithm in the primary diagnostic of children. The aim of this study was to survey the participation of German trauma-centres in the care of polytraumatised children and the hospital dependant use of whole-body computed tomography for initial patient work-up.
    Material and methods: A questionnaire was mailed to every Department of Traumatology registered in the DGU (German Trauma Society) databank.
    Results: We received 60,32% of the initially sent questionnaires and after applying exclusion criteria 269 (53,91%) were applicable to statistical analysis. In the three-tiered German hospital system no statistical difference was seen in the general participation of children polytrauma care between hospitals of different tiers (p = 0.315). Even at the lowest hospital level 69,47% of hospitals stated to participate in polytrauma care for children, at the intermediate and highest level hospitals 91,89% and 95,24% stated to be involved in children polytrauma care, respectively. Children suspicious of multiple injuries or polytrauma received significantly fewer primary whole-body CTs in lowest level compared to intermediate level hospitals (36,07% vs. 56,57%; p = 0.015) and lowest level compared to highest level hospitals (36,07% vs. 68,42%; p = 0.001). Comparing the use of whole-body CT in intermediate to highest level hospitals a not significant increase in its use could be seen in highest level hospitals (56,57% vs. 68,42%; p = 0.174).
    Conclusion: According to our survey, taking care of polytraumatised children in Germany is not limited to specialised hospitals or a defined hospital level-of-care. Additionally, there is no established radiologic standard in work-up of the polytraumatised child. However, in higher hospital care -levels a higher percentage of hospitals employs whole-body CTs for primary radiologic diagnostics in polytraumatised children.

    Abstract Purpose of the study: Surgical techniques for the treatment of supracondylar fractures in children are repeatedly the subject of discussion. The aim of the present study was to compare experience with the technique of crossed Kirschner wires at our own hospital with current literature.
    Patients and methods: In the period from 2000-2006 a total of 86 children aged 1.7 to 12.7 years were treated by means of crossed K-wire osteosynthesis. Follow up was conducted at an average of 32 months. Outcomes were evaluated based on von Laer's criteria.
    Results: Reported complications were migration of the K-wires in 7% of cases and secondary dislocation and re-operation in 4% of cases. Lesion of the radial nerve was diagnosed postoperatively in two cases. Hospital stay was 1.5 days on average. Postoperative immobilization in an upper arm splint and implant removal after 6 weeks on average. 57% of the children received physiotherapy during the course of treatment. Slight varization was found in 11% of children and an unsatisfactory range of motion in 13%. Satisfactory outcomes were recorded for 83% of patients.
    Conclusion: K-wire osteosynthesis is associated with a low complication rate and continues to be a safe standard procedure for the stabilization of supracondylar humerus fractures. Key words: supracondylar humerus fracture, Kirschner wires, paediatric fractures.

    Abstract Purpose of the study: Fractures affecting a partially closed physis are described as transitional fractures. The distal tibia is one of the most common locations for transitional fractures second only to the distal radius. Aim of this retrospective study was to evaluate the clinical and radiological results after surgical treatment of transitional fractures of the distal tibia.
    Patients and methods: From May 2003 to March 2009 24 children (median age 14 years) received surgical treatment for transitional fractures of the distal tibia. 89% (21/24) of patients were followed up after 27.5 (range 6 to 72) months to assess functional out come (using the AO Foot and Ankle Score).
    Results: Nine girls and 15 boys were included in the study with the girls being younger on average (12.4 ± 0.9 vs. 14.3 ± 1.1 years, p = 0.00013). Two-plane fractures were present in 4 cases, 15 and 5 children sustained tri-plane I and II fractures, respectively. Median preoperative fracture displacement was measured at 4 mm (range 3 to 11 mm). Traumatic supination of the ankle joint during sports activities was the predominant injury mechanism (18/24 cases) followed by bicycle or motorbike accidents (6/24). A satisfactory reduction (1 mm or less) was achieved in all but one patient. In this case revision surgery was necessary to restore anatomical reduction. No perioperative complications occurred in the remaining 23 cases. Metal implants were removed upon fracture consolidation after 8.2 ± 6.7 months. At the time of follow-up none of the children were impaired in activities of daily living and there were no restrictions in sporting activity. All patients sco- red good or excellent results on the AO Foot and Ankle Score.
    Discussion: Surgical stabilization can be recommended as a safe and effective treatment strategy in displaced transitional fractures of the distal tibia and will lead to good or excellent mid term results.

    Title translation Intertrochanteric femoral fractures in children.
    Abstract Based on two cases and a review of the literature, we describe a rare injury in childhood, intertrochanteric femoral fracture. Because of the insertion and traction of muscles at the proximal femur, conservative treatment is difficult. The hip muscles pull the proximal fragment into flexion, abduction and external rotation. In our opinion, surgical stabilization is the therapy of choice. We use an angular stable, locking compression plate for the stabilization of these fractures. Postoperatively, mobilization with full weight bearing is possible.

    Abstract Introduction: Prospective collected data of the TraumaRegister DGU(®) were analyzed to derive survival rates and predictors for non-survival in the children who had suffered traumatic cardiorespiratory arrest. Different time points of resuscitation efforts (only preclinical, in the emergency room (ER) or preclinical+ER) were analyzed in terms of mortality and neurological outcome.
    Methods: The database of the TraumaRegister DGU(®) comprising 122,742 patients from 1993 to 2013 was analyzed. The main focus of this survey was on the paediatric group defined by an age ≤ 14 years who could be compared to adults. Different statistical analysis (univariate and multivariate analysis, logistic regression) were performed with mortality as the target variable. Differences between the paedatric group and adults were analysed by Fisher's exact test.
    Results: Data after preclinical and/or ER resuscitation from 152 children and 1690 adults were analyzed. A good or moderate outcome (GOS 5+4) was found in 19.4% of the children's group compared to 12.4% of the adults (p=0.02). Analysis of the GOS 5+4 subgroups after preclinical resuscitation only revealed that these outcomes were achieved by 19.4% of the paediatric group and 13.2% of the adults (p=0.24), after ER-only resuscitation by 37.0% of the children and 19.6% of the adults (p=0.046), and after preclinical and ER resuscitation by only 10.9% of the children compared to 2.5% of the adults (p=0.006). Taking only survivors into account, 84.8% of the children and 62% of the adults had a GOS 4+5. The highest risk for mortality in the logistic regression model was associated with preclinical intubation, followed by GCS 3, blood transfusion and severe head injury with AIS ≥3 and ISS.
    Conclusions: CPR in children after severe trauma seems to yield a better outcome than in adults, and appears to be more justified than the current guidelines would imply. Resuscitation in the ER is associated with better neurological outcomes compared with resuscitation in a preclinical context or in both the preclinical phase and the ER. Our children's outcomes seem to be better than those in most of the earlier studies, and the data presented might support algorithms in the future especially for paediatric resuscitation.
