INTRODUCTION. Upper extremity fractures comprise 84 % of all extremity fractures in children.MATERIAL AND METHODS. In 2004–2013, 504 operations were performed in children aged 5 to 17 years for various injuries of the upper extremity using image intensifiers, in Minsk clinical centre of Trauma and orthopaedics of 6th Minsk clinical Hospital (children’s Department)RESULTS. Immediate results were good or excellent in 98.8 % of patients. In 1.2 % of patients, post-traumatic transient neuropathy of the radial and median nerves was observed.CONCLUSIONS.
