Abstract

The article describes rare cases from the practice of pediatric orthopedist-traumatologist.  Modern household appliances are often the reason for children to receive significant and severe injuries that increase the risk of disability for life. The peculiarity of the child's body is that at different ages the same traumatic force causes completely different results, which must be taken into account in the practice of traumatology. The aim of this work is to comparative assessment of injuries depending on the magnitude of the traumatic impact, the condition of bone tissue, and the development of optimal methods of treatment of these injuries. The basis of the work is the results of examinations of patients of the trauma department of the regional children's hospital with rare injuries over the past 10 years. The basic methods of examination were X-ray, computed tomography. It was found that there is a direct dependence of the severity of the injuries on the age of the child, the duration of the traumatic impact, its area and treatment tactics.Summarizing the data obtained, we believe that in the case of destructive effects of injuries, it is advisable to use adequate, active, early surgical tactics.
