Of these, 22 patients (7 women, 15 men; mean age 32 years; range 18 to 69 years) underwent open reduction and plate-screw fixation, and 20 patients (6 women, 14 men; mean age 33 years; range 18 to 70 years) underwent closed reduction and locked intramedullary nail fixation. The fractures were classified according to the AO\/OTA system. The patients were assessed using the Grace-Eversmann criteria and the DASH (Disability of the Arm, Shoulder and Hand) questionnaire. The mean follow-up was 30 months (range 12 to 45) with plate-screw fixation, and 23 months (range 12 to 34) with intramedullary nailing.\\r\\nResults: The mean operation time was 65 minutes (range 40 to 97 min) with plate-screw fixation, and 61 minutes (range 35 to 90 min) with intramedullary nailing (p&gt;0.05). The mean time to union was significantly shorter with intramedullary nailing (10 weeks vs. 14 weeks; p&lt;0.05). According to the Grace-Eversmann criteria, the results were excellent or good in 18 patients (81.8%) and acceptable in four patients (18.2%) treated with plate-screw fixation, compared to 18 patients (90%) and two patients (10%), respectively, treated with intramedullary nailing. The mean DASH scores were 15 (range 4 to 30) and 13 (range 3 to 25), respectively. The two groups did not differ significantly with respect to functional results and DASH scores (p&gt;0.05). Postoperative complications were seen in three patients (13.6%) and two patients (10%) with plate-screw fixation and intramedullary nailing, respectively. \\r\\nConclusion: The two fixation methods yield similar results in terms of functional healing and patient satisfaction in the management of adult forearm fractures.\n\n\u00d6zet\n\nAma\u00e7: Eri\u015fkinlerdeki \u00f6nkol \u00e7ift k\u0131r\u0131klar\u0131n\u0131n cerrahi tedavisinde uygulad\u0131\u011f\u0131m\u0131z iki farkl\u0131 y\u00f6ntemin sonu\u00e7lar\u0131 de\u011ferlendirildi.\\r\\n\u00c7al\u0131\u015fma plan\u0131: \u00d6nkol k\u0131r\u0131kl\u0131 42 eri\u015fkin hasta geriye d\u00f6n\u00fck olarak incelendi.
