Surgical enhancement of fracture healing – operative vs. nonoperative treatment

Although the success story of surgical fracture treatment led to a tremendous improvement outcome for certain fractures such as femur or tibia shaft fractures, overall benefit versus conservative remains controversial several types fractures. For this sake, we carried out narrative review high-level evidence studies comparing outcomes in with debates on value therapy clavicle, proximal humerus, olecranon, ankle, calcaneus and Jones We identified eight (Level-I -2) functional quality life these fractures.Only fifth metatarsal bone, bone healing were significantly better after compared treatment. In terms patient-related life, was not found be superior all above-mentioned many trials, lower nonunion rates offset by complications due procedure. Nonunion often seemed have only limited impact results.However, comparability age-differences between patients. Therefore, emphasize need further investigations determine which factors favor approach whom surgery is best option.
