</script>Fractures of the shaft of the femur including the subtrochanteric and the supracondylar regions account for 1.6% of all fractures in children. The boy-to-girl ratio is 2.3:1, a ratio which may change in the future as girls participate in contact sports like soccer. The incidence seems to have a bimodal distribution with one peak in young children and another in young teenagers [1–3]. The annual rate of femoral shaft fractures was calculated as 19 per 100,000 children [4].
