Elbow fracture in children if not treated properly, leads to ugly deformity. Swelling after the injury makes treatment with plaster ineffective. Setting of fractured bones under guidance of image intensifier and fixation with thin wires assures normal appearance and function in growing children, and there are no ugly scars, nor there is pain of surgery making it an ideal mode of treatment for fractures in children.
