摘要：

Isolated sternal fractures are very rare in children. Pain management is the method of choice, but surgery may be indicated in selected cases with dislocated fractures. However, the indication for open reduction of sternal fractures is discussed controversially. To the best of our knowledge, we present the first report of a child with displaced isolated sternal fracture who was successfully treated by conservative means using a vacuum bell.
