After a fracture, the potential sequelae depend on the location of the fracture and the chosen treatment method. For example, fractures involving joint surfaces can lead to traumatic arthritis after treatment. Similarly, femur fractures can lead to the formation of lower limb thrombosis after surgery and the fracture itself. Some fractures near joints might also affect the range of joint motion after treatment. Therefore, the type of sequelae after treating a fracture depends on both the location of the fracture and the treatment approach chosen.
