Immobilization in cast has been standard treatment for un displaced supracondylar fracture of humerus. Closed reduction and percutaneous pinning provides the best cosmetic and functional results. The fracture can be fixed with pinning in any desired position. Use of medial and lateral pin fixation provides more stability. The pins must continue into the opposite cortex to provide good fixation. Smooth pins are preferred and restoration of movements is full range with closed pinning than open reduction.
