Core Tip Complex supracondylar humeral fractures in children are treated operatively. Though closed reduction by Blount’s method and pinning is the treatment of choice, open reduction can be reasonable in cases of gross displacement, neurovascular compromise and difficulty in closed reduction. Intra- and post-operative complication rates, functional outcome and reduce in radiation burden define open reduction as a safe and effective operative method.
