The Study compares the outcomes of fracture shaft of both bones forearm treated by either intra medullary nailing or dynamic compression plating. Objectives: To compare the functional outcome of 2 different conventional treatment modalities for fracture shaft of both bones forearm. Materials and Methods: This was a prospective study of 40 cases at Government Medical College, Thiruvananthapuram. 20 patient were treated by dynamic compression plating (group A) and 20 patient by intra medullary nailing (Group B) Results were compared by clinico radiological and functional assessment.
