INTRODUCTION:– This study was conducted to assess the results of closed reduction and percutaneous  kirschner wire fixation under image intensifier control of displaced supracondylar fracture of humerus in Children.

METHOD:– In this prospective study 40 cases  with  supracondylar humerus fracture  treated with closed reduction(25 cases) or fixation with Kirschner wires under image intensifier(15cases) and evaluated  clinically and radiologically. The assessment of anatomical and functional outcome was made according to Mitchell and Adams criteria .

RESULT:– In our study 40 cases  were studied. The age of patient ranged from 6 to 10 years. Male to female ratio was 4:1.Maximum cases were extension type(95%). The assessment of anatomical and functional outcome was made according to Mitchell and Adams criteria. 5 cases (20%)  in closed reduction and 9 cases (60%) in fixation with k wire were rated as excellent, 10 cases (40%) rated as good, 10 cases (40%) was rated as poor in closed reduction  and 4 case(26.6%)  was rated as good and 2 cases (13.4%)was rated as poor in fixation with k wire.

CONCLUSION:– We concluded that Closed reduction and plaster of paris splinting should be reserved for minimally displaced fractures. Further attempts at closed reduction should be made, as repeated manipulations increasers’ incidence of myositis ossifications and residual stiffness.In all other cases, closed reduction and fixation with Kirschner wires under image intensifier control should be attempted
