What this treatment involves
Fracture fixation is the surgical stabilisation of a broken bone, usually with plates, screws, or intramedullary rods. Not every fracture needs surgery. The injury is usually assessed on X-ray and clinically to decide the most appropriate treatment. Where surgery is needed, the aim is to hold the bone in the right position while it heals.
How care is decided
Whether fracture fixation is the right option depends on the individual patient. A doctor will normally assess the condition, review any imaging or test results, and discuss the alternatives before recommending a treatment. Not every patient with a related condition needs this procedure.
