Over 15 years (1967 to 1982) 140 uncomplicated femoral shaft fractures in children under four years of age were successfully treated using Bryant's traction. Forty of these children were treated after the introduction of the domiciliary management policy in 1976; 13 children were managed at hospital and 27 were managed at home. No significant complications occurred. The advantages to the family, and the safety and economy of domiciliary management lead us to recommend its adoption in favourable cases. Treatment at home relies on an efficient and experienced home nursing service. Possible complications of the injury and treatment with recommendations to prevent them are discussed.
