%X Aim: Fracture cases are increasing with active life. In this study, we aimed to evaluate the demographic characteristics and treatment of patients diagnosed with fracture in Kars Harakani State Hospital. Material and Methods: The data were retrospectively obtained from the registration system of Kars Harakani State Hospital between June2016 and November 2018. Age, gender, type of trauma, diagnosis and treatment of the patients were determined. All data were analyzed in SPSS version 13 program. Results: 489 (81.6%) of the patients were male and the mean age was 35.6¡À29.4. 12.8% of the outpatients were treated by emergency medicine specialist. When the distribution of 469 patients according to the service was evaluated, 337 (71.8%) were hospitalized in the orthopedics service. 11.3% (n: 53) of the patients who underwent orthopedics constitute the radius-ulna fractures. Surgical treatment was applied to 272 (80.7%) patients and conservative treatment was applied to 65 (19.2%) patients. Conclusion: As a result, it should be kept in mind that a significant proportion of the patients diagnosed with fracture in the emergency department are evaluated by the orthopedics clinic and that a significant proportion of them are treated surgically according to the current orthopedic literature
