Objectives: This study designed to evaluate the results of treatment, closed reduction and percutaneous wires, of the distal radius fractures in children. Materials and methods: A retrospective analysis was carried out in children aged between 5-15 years who presented with a displaced fracture of the distal radius to our hospital. They were initially treated with closed reduction and cast immobilization. If the fractures redisplaced treated by percutaneous Kirschner (K-) wire with scope under a general anaesthesia. Results: Totally 104 patients, who have distal radius fractures were treated by closed reduction and immobilization in a plaster cast. 13 patient who have distal radius fractures were treated by closed reduction under general anaesthesia and fixed by percutaneous Kirschner (K-) wire. Patients with impaired the alignment of the fracture in late period were usually completely displaced fractures. (n=5, 4,3%), in early period, completely displaced fractures (n=5, 4,3%) are superior to partial displaced fractures (n=2, 1,7%). Conclusion: In our study, when children with distal radius fracture first come, they were treated by closed reduction and immobilization in a plaster cast. We thought that in redisplaced fractures patients were suitable for the closed reduction with percutaneous wire treatment.
