Fracture Management
The fracture management surgeries clinic in Delhi is another service offering Med Tourism for patients, who require surgical intervention in the management of their fractures.
Injuries are very common; fractures is a medical word for a broken bone or commonly known as a crack. It happens when force exerted on the bone is more than the force that the bone is able to handle.
In some cases, the fracture or a broken bone needs to be fixed with the help of surgery with the help of metal plates, rods or pins. Despite the fact that bones are considered to be living tissues, they also have the unique property of being hard when they are broken, they can repair themselves. That is why bones have to be set and then placed in a cast and sometimes even our muscle categorized according to the location of the fracture.

Surgical Management of Fracture
Open Surgery in Fracture Management
In the course of the surgery the surgeon after administering anesthesia to the patient proceeds to make an incision to develop the area of the fracture. To consolidate the bone there to the required position, the surgeon rearranges the bone into their usual position. It is called reduction (reducing the fracture). Subsequently, the combination of metal, wires and pins, screws, as well as plates and rods are employed in a safe manner to fix the bones in place. These can be of stainless steel such, high strength alloy metal or even titanium. The metal rods and nails are embedded submersed into your bones and the screws and metal plates are soldered with its skin.
