The management of patients with open leg fracture in Ivory Coast does not meet the standards of developed countries due to socio-economic conditions, accessibility and organization of care. However, is this care problematic? Is it associated with more post-traumatic infection or mechanical complications and are these correlated with the delay for treatment and the method of treatment? This is a single-center prospective study conducted on between January 2018 and May 2018 at Bouaké University Hospital. The observed parameters included factors related to patient, fracture and treatment conditions and were correlated with the rates of complications by multivariate analysis.Introduction
