The fractures in elder children (9--17 years) need a special treatment. Regarding the exact reposition they have to be handled like the fractures of adults. Regarding localisation, morphology of the bone and the way of internal fixation they have to be treated like those of smaller children. The "Minimal-Osteosynthesis" primarily means adaptation, refixation and continuous retention. The procedure is less traumatizing, however the indication should be as strictly as in other cases. The minimal osteosynthesis is giving more respect to the growing bone. The material of internal fixation may be removed much earlier than in adults. Stability for early physical exercises is rarely necessary in children. Even different types of minimal internal fixation are possible. A number of cases are demonstrated.
