Neonatal fractures are often quite distressing to parents and medical teams involved. Their management can be daunting due to the small size of the patient, the concern of the new parents and the fear of the obstetric staff about litigation and deformity or long term disability of the neonate. This study assesses the radiological and functional outcome of neonatal fractures up to two years post injury.Introduction
Aim
Flexor tendon injuries are quite common injuries. They can result in persisting functional deficit if not repaired and appropriately rehabilitated. We look at flexor tendon injuries over a period of 1 year and re-audited three years later. We audited all flexor tendon injuries that were treated at our institution and repeated the same audit three years after. We looked at various aspects of the injuries including the site injured, the zone of injury, other structures injured, the type of repair and material used as well as the rehabilitation regime.Introduction
