Simple Fracture Requiting Open Reduction
A simple fracture requiring open reduction is a surgical procedure to correct a bone break where the bone fragments are aligned but requires open reduction surgery to align and stabilize the bone to ensure proper healing. This differs from a closed reduction, which is utilized if a fracture is stabilized enough to be manipulated externally.
This procedure can be performed on a range of body parts, including arms and hands, legs and feet, shoulders and collarbone, and hips. The goal of this procedure is to help patients achieve relief from a broken bone through a simple, open-reduction approach to stabilize the bone and ensure the best healing outcomes.
When is this Procedure Necessary?
A simple fracture requiring open reduction is considered medically necessary when non-surgical methods such as closed reduction or immobilization with a cast or splint do not allow for proper bone alignment.

What To Expect
Before the surgery, patients will have a consultation with their surgeon to review X-rays and receive an overview of what they can expect. Depending on the severity and location of the fracture, patients will receive local or general anesthesia to ensure their comfort. The surgeon will make an incision over the affected area and then carefully realign the fragments into the proper position. Next, the surgeon will stabilize the bone using plates, screws, or rods to maintain alignment during the healing process. The surgeon will close the incision and the patient will wake up from the anesthesia.
After the procedure, a cast, splint, or brace is applied to stabilize the bone. Patients may be prescribed anti-inflammatory pain medications to ensure they are comfortable during the healing period. If patients notice any irregular symptoms, they should promptly consult their doctor.
