Why the study?
Does delayed internal fixation improve fracture healing and reduce non-union in closed fractures compared to early surgery?
Does delayed internal fixation improve fracture healing and reduce non-union in closed fractures compared to early surgery?
Delayed internal fixation of closed fractures may improve healing efficiency and reduce non-union rates compared to early fixation.
