Abstract
In adults, usually the forearm fracture fragments are displaced. The patient complains of pain, deformity and loss of function of the forearm and hand. Some degree of swelling is always present. Abnormal mobility and crepitus are present. The physical examination should include neurological evaluation of the motor and sensory functions of radial median and ulnar nerves. This was a prospective time bound study with a sample size of 20 patients, which include treatment of 10 cases of fracture both bones forearm by open reduction and internal fixation with 3.5 mm DCP (Group‐A) and 10 cases with 3.5 mm LC‐DCP (Group‐B). In group A left side was predominant with 90%, and in group B both the sides were equally distributed. In both the groups A and B, Type A 3 (Simple both bones fracture) was the most common type of injury with 70‐60% respectively.
