The results were as follows: 1. Among 85 patients, 12 patients were radius fractures, 19 patients were ulna fractures, 54 patients were both forearm bone fractures. 2. Closed fractures were 70 patients and the open fractures were 15 patients. 3. The mst common fracture site was middle third of the both radius and ulna. 4. The treatments were closed reduction with cast immobilization, intramedullary nailing or plate and screw fixation. 5. The time required for radiological bone union were shorter in compression plate fixation gmup, than those treated with other fixation device. 6. Functional result was claasified according to the rating system of Smith and Sage. The open reduction and internal fixation group had better results than the conservatively treated group.
