Does an embedded fracture require surgery?

If the fracture is poorly aligned or angularly deformed, surgery is needed to investigate the fracture. If there is no local alignment or poor alignment, it is possible to take conservative treatment without surgery, to fix the fracture in a cast, and to review the X-ray regularly to see if the fracture is displaced and if the fracture is not healing well. If there is poor healing, it is necessary to extend the external fixation of the cast to prevent local deformity healing or other problems.
