Abstract

Objectives: Evaluation of the results of bone healing and rehabilitation in treatment by plate fixation for radius and ulna shaft fractures in adults. Subjects and methods: A descriptive retrospective study on 63 patients with closed radius and ulna shaft fractures treated by open reduction and plate fixation at Military Hospital 175 from January 2016 to July 2019. Results and Conclusion: The bone healing result was 100%. Postoperative functional outcome according to Anderson's criteria was relatively positive, with 90.48% excellent, 9.52% good. The functional outcome after surgery by Grace and Eversmann's evaluation system was relatively positive, with 74.6% excellent, 17.46% good, 7.94% average.
