Objective To explore the clinical advantages of internal fixation with steel plates and screws in the treatment of traumatic fractures of long tubular bones in the limbs. Methods Randomly select patients with long tubular bone trauma fractures of the limbs who receive treatment in our department, and select a total of 100 patients (treatment time range: April 2022 to April 2023). They are divided into a simple random method: a control group and an observation group, with 50 patients in each group. The control group of fracture patients received interlocking intramedullary nail fixation, while the observation group received steel plate and screw fixation. The clinical indicators and incidence of complications were compared between the two groups of patients. Results The incidence of complications in patients with long tubular bone trauma in the observation group was significantly lower than that in the control group: P<0.05; The surgical time, fracture healing time, hospitalization time, and bleeding volume of the observation group were compared with those of the control group (P<0.05). Conclusion For patients with long tubular bone trauma fractures in the limbs, adopting steel plate and screw internal fixation surgery can not only significantly improve the treatment effect of patients, but also improve the severity of fractures, shorten the hospitalization time of patients, and have significant therapeutic effects on the prognosis and rehabilitation of patients, which is worth promoting.
