Brief Summary
Modification(s)  
A total of 60 patients below the age of 13 years presenting to the Department of Orthopaedics with Gartland type 2 and 3 supracondylar humerus fracture will be recruited into the study after obtaining consent from the parents. The recruited participants will be randomly allocated into group A (cross pinning) and group B (lateral pinning) and the fracture will be fixed by the respective techniques. All children will be assessed for both primary and secondary outcome after data collection.
