Background: The outcome of ankle fractures treatment is great importance. The purpose of the present study was to investigate the outcome of ankle fractures treatment by open reduction method and internal fixation.
Material and Methods: The method of study was cross-sectional. A total of 169 patients with ankle fracture who underwent open surgical and internal fixation surgery were the statistical sample. Patients were evaluated by a Clinical rating system for the ankle and hindfoot and eventually gave them a point from 100.
Results: Of the 169 samples, 53 were female and 116 were male. The average a Clinical rating system for the ankle and hindfoot was 51 (95% CI 49-53). The most common fractures type was bimalleoalr fracture. The majority of patients suffering from daily dysfunction and pain, their gait pattern was also changed.
Conclusions: According to the results and available studies, the results of surgical treatment of ankle fractures were not optimal and further investigation and finding more appropriate intervention methods were needed in order to obtain the desired results. To achieve optimal surgical outcome, it is recommended that the time interval between injury and surgery should not exceed 4 days.

Background: Clavicle fractures have various complications following open reduction and internal fixation. The main objective of this study was to investigate the prevalence of complications of Clavicle fractures following operative treatment. Also, the prevalence of infection, local dissatisfaction, non:::::union::::: and mal:::::union::::: in the Clavicle fracture after internal fixation was investigated.
Material and Methods: The study was cross-sectional. A sample of 52 patients was treated with clavicle fractures, which were treated with open resection and internal fixation. In order to determine the range of motion, strength and shoulder pain, patients were selected from Constant Shoulder Score. Radiography used to detect :::::union:::::.
Results: 12 were female and 40 were male of 52 patients. The mean score of the shoulder was 84 ± 2 (95% CI 83-84). One third of the patients used Hook. Patients complained more dysmorphic scar (96%), skin numbness (80%) and pain (73.1%). The rate of infection in patients was very low.
Conclusions: The most common complication is pain, dysmorphic scar and skin numbness that can be said to be relatively normal and can be seen in most patients. Of course, it should also be taken into account that the differences in surgical techniques, surgeries, cultural issues, gender, and age of the patients can be affected.
