Abstract
Initial treatment for children with supracondylar fractures and no radial pulse must be closed reduction. Arteriography is the most appropriate pre- and intraoperative diagnostic tool to define the lesion and plan the surgery. Fracture reduction and blood supply restoration are important for limb salvage and avoidance of potential sequelae.
