AB  - This study investigated the effects and incidence of non union rates in the
management of diaphyseal forearm fractures treated with dynamic
compression plates(DCP) ands locking plates. The study included 20
patients of forarm diaphyseal both bone fractures, camt to our
orthopaedics department in Sree Mookambika Institute of medical
sciences treated surgically, out of which 10 patients were done with
dynamic compression plating and 10 patients with locking plates. The
mean age of the study was 40 Out of 20 patients,10 patients achieved
proper union irrespective of the plating system.8 patients reported non
union treated with locking plates and 2 patients reported treated with
DCP. These findings were revealed that non union rates are higher in
locking plates when compared to dynamic compression plating system.
