Abstract: Femur fracture is very common fracture in children. Femur shaft fracture around 2% pediatrics age group fracture. Various methods are used to treatment in femur fracture. Like hip Spica, plating, nailing with tens or Enders nailing. Enders and tens are commonly used methods.
Purpose of study: The know of outcome of elastic tens nailing in pediatrics shaft fracture.
Material and Method: We study’s 24 children’s of fracture shaft of femur between age group 5 to 14.
Result: The minimum fellow up to 8 month. The average time taken to full weight bearing and clinical union is 6 week to 8 week. In 3 cases there is superficial infection present in 2nd week of post-surgery. Which is cure by antibiotics and wound washing. No case of nonunion, out of 24 cases 12 cases have limb length discrepancy. 6 cases had lighting 6 cases had shorting. On the Flynn criteria 22 cases have excellent result 2 have satisfactory result. No cases show any unsatisfactory results.
Conclusion: Cases which treated by tens elastic nailing achieved primary healing. The advantage of treating patient with enders nail had early weight bearing, reduced hospital stay, less bedridden and early to start to study. Overall tens elastic nailing is have many benefits either then conservation treatment.
