Dr. Narayana Gowda BS, Dr. Ajith Krishnamurthy, Dr. Sandeep Patil V

The goal of fracture treatment is to achieve union and to restore the anatomy and function of the injured part as near normal as possible. It is important to regain the length of the bones, good opposition and alignment without any malrotation. This was a prospective time bound study with sample size of 20 patients. Which include treatment of 10 cases of fracture both bones forearm by open reduction and internal fixation with 3.5 mm DCP (Group-A) and 10 cases with 3.5 mm LC-DCP (Group-B). Using the Anderson et al. scoring system we had 8 (80%) patients with excellent results, 1 (10%) patients with satisfactory and 1 (10%) patient with failure due to nonunion ulna in Group A and 9 (90%) patients with excellent results, 1 (10%) patients with satisfactory results in Group B.
