Fractures

Fractures are among the most frequent traumatic injuries affecting travelers.

At Rome Orthopaedic Trauma, we provide timely diagnosis and expert treatment of all major fracture types, ensuring seamless access to surgical care through our partner clinics and complete coordination with international insurance providers. Our goal is to minimize wait times, restore function, and ensure safe discharge or repatriation.

Conditions Treated Include:
  • Clavicle Fracture – Frequently caused by falls or direct shoulder trauma; common in active travelers and cyclists.
  • Proximal Humerus Fracture – Upper arm fracture near the shoulder joint; often affects elderly patients.
  • Radial Head Fracture – Elbow fracture typically sustained after a fall on an outstretched arm.
  • Distal Radius Fracture – One of the most common wrist injuries; may require surgical fixation.
  • Scaphoid Fracture – Small bone in the wrist with high risk of nonunion if not promptly diagnosed.
  • Metacarpal and Phalangeal Fractures – Fractures of the hand and fingers, often resulting from impact or crushing injuries.
  • Femoral Neck and Intertrochanteric Fractures – Hip fractures with surgical indication, particularly in elderly patients.
  • Patella and Tibial Plateau Fractures – Knee-related injuries impacting mobility and joint function.
