Fracture
A fracture is a partial or complete break in the bone. When a fracture occurs, it is classified into two types: open or closed:
- Open Fracture (Compound Fracture): The bone breaks and protrudes through the skin, or a deep wound exposes the bone externally.
- Closed Fracture (Simple Fracture): The bone breaks, but the skin remains intact.
Fractures can take on different forms, and here are the most common types:
- Greenstick Fracture: This is an incomplete break where part of the bone breaks while the other side bends, often seen in children due to their softer bones.
- Transverse Fracture: The bone breaks in a straight line across.
- Spiral Fracture: The bone breaks in a spiral pattern, usually as a result of a twisting injury.
- Oblique Fracture: The break occurs diagonally across the bone.
- Compression Fracture: The bone is crushed, often resulting in a wider or flatter appearance of the fractured bone.
- Comminuted Fracture: The bone breaks into three or more pieces, with fragments at the site of the fracture.
- Segmental Fracture: The bone breaks in two separate places, leaving a “floating” piece of bone.
- Avulsion Fracture: The bone fractures near a tendon or ligament, often caused by a tendon or ligament pulling off a small piece of bone.

About Fracture
trauma surgery
Trauma surgery is a specialized branch of surgery focused on the treatment of injuries caused by external forces, such as accidents, falls, violence, and other traumatic events. It is an essential aspect of emergency medicine and critical care, as trauma surgeons often work in high-pressure environments, including emergency rooms (ERs) and trauma centers, where rapid decision-making is vital to saving lives and minimizing long-term damage.
Trauma surgery Process: Upon arrival at the trauma center or ER, the first priority is to stabilize the patient using the ABCDE approach:
- Airway: Ensuring the airway is clear and unobstructed.
- Breathing: Ensuring the patient is breathing properly.
- Circulation: Managing any issues with blood flow, including bleeding.
- Disability: Assessing neurological function.
- Exposure: Exposing the body to identify any hidden injuries.

I have had two excellent experiences with Dr. Apoorv and his team, both of which are worth mentioning.
The first was a relatively minor issue; my mother had an ankle problem that did not require major intervention. Dr. Apoorv managed it conservatively, and she made a full recovery within three days.
The second experience was far more serious. During a workout, I sustained a bucket handle meniscus tear with a flip in my right knee. I consulted multiple orthopedic surgeons, and while many recommended immediate meniscectomy, Dr. Apoorv took a more thoughtful, patient‑first approach. He initially tried non‑surgical management with medications and targeted exercises to avoid surgery. When my symptoms did not improve, he advised a meniscus repair rather than removing the meniscus, prioritizing long‑term knee health.
I underwent surgery in September at Indian Spinal Injuries Centre. The procedure lasted approximately 4.5 hours, as significant effort was made to preserve the meniscus. I am now four months post‑op with full range of motion. While I am still a few months away from resuming high‑intensity workouts, my recovery has been steady and I feel significantly better than before the surgery.
Dr. Apoorv combines strong technical expertise with a calm, empathetic, and approachable manner, which was reassuring throughout the process.
Operationally, his setup is very efficient. His team -- Sarika, Priyanka, and Satish -- handled tests, medications, insurance, and logistics smoothly. Home physiotherapy visits were arranged, which was particularly important given the non‑weight‑bearing phase after surgery.
Physiotherapy was overseen by Dr. Ashutosh, who works closely with Dr. Apoorv and played an important role in my rehabilitation.
Overall, I would recommend Dr. Apoorv without hesitation for orthopedic care in the South Delhi area. He is an excellent surgeon with a well‑coordinated team.

Dr Apoorv Dua was incredibly helpful in helping me resolve a wrist issue that had been plaguing me for almost a year. I went to multiple doctors and was still in constant pain, but Dr Dua recommended a conservative treatment that helped resolve the problem while avoiding more invasive alternatives like steroid injections or surgery. He was patient, kind and knowledgeable, and I’m super grateful for his guidance and support. I would highly recommend him to anyone facing similar orthopedic issues!

I went here for an X-ray of my lower back and had an unprofessional and unethical experience.
1. The x-ray technician seemed inexperienced and even after doing it 3 times the film was blurred
2. The dr saw the film and verbally told me there's no problem however when the report came 2 days later it said partial lumbar lordosis loss and some osteophytes.
3. The clinic held back our reports and refused to give it to us stating that the reporting person was on leave. This wasn't conveyed to us when we went for x-ray. Report was sent to us 2 days later after fighting and threatening to report them in consumer court.
It was just an extremely unethical behaviour. Will not recommend it at all.
