Had An Open Reduction Internal Fixation On A Broken Elbow
Had an open reduction internal fixation on a broken elbow radius head. I was 39, when this happened, non smoker. The surgery was 4 weeks after the injury. The crack in the bone did not heal. Was the negative outcome caused to a significant degree by the long delay of the surgery after the injury?
