Fracture Fixation Surgery

Fracture Fixation Surgery is an orthopaedic procedure performed to stabilize and repair broken bones that cannot heal properly with a cast or splint alone. It is commonly recommended for displaced fractures, multiple fractures, open fractures, unstable fractures, joint fractures, or fractures that fail to heal with conservative treatment. The surgeon uses internal fixation methods like plates, screws, rods, or pins to maintain bone alignment.

Your Care Journey

We believe in complete transparency. Here is what you can expect at every step of your procedural journey with our specialized medical team.

Before Surgery

The surgeon evaluates the fracture via X-rays or CT scans to determine the fixation method. Patients must fast as instructed, stop certain medications like blood thinners, and avoid putting weight on the injured limb.

Day of Surgery

Under anaesthesia, an incision is made over the fractured bone. The surgeon realigns the broken fragments and secures them using plates, screws, rods, pins, or metal nails. In complex cases, external fixation devices may be used. The incision is then closed.

Post Surgery

Recovery includes pain management, swelling control, and early rehabilitation. Patients must keep the wound clean, use crutches or slings as recommended, attend physiotherapy, and avoid weight-bearing until permitted by the surgeon.
