An open fracture, also known as a compound fracture, is a serious injury resulting in a broken bone that either protrudes through the skin or can be seen from the open wound in the skin. Because of the open wound, contamination and infection is of great concern.
Perhaps the most important aspect in the treatment of open fractures is the initial surgical intervention with irrigation and meticulous debridement of the injury zone. In fact, we believe that the surgeon should spend as much time for planning and performing the debridement as for the fixation of the fracture.
