Only some types of fractures require surgery. A fracture is a break in the integrity and continuity of the bone. Depending on the integrity of the skin and mucous membranes at the fracture site, and the degree of stability of the fracture break, they can be categorized as closed, open, stable or unstable fractures. Only some of the fracture types that are severe and do not respond to conservative treatment require surgery. In open fractures, the broken end pierces the skin and communicates with the outside world, which requires us to carry out thorough debridement and suturing as soon as possible to avoid wound infection; in unstable fractures, the broken end is dislocated to varying degrees, and when manipulative repositioning is unsuccessful, it is necessary for us to carry out surgical repositioning to avoid fracture non-union. On the other hand, stable fractures such as cleavage fracture and glaucoma fracture do not require surgical treatment.
