Sumario:Fractures of phalanges are common hand injuries and may require surgical correction depending on displacement and stability. Homoeopathic remedies having specific action on bones with properties for callus formation can heal such conditions recommended for surgery in conventional methods of treatment. This is a case report of a 65-yearold man sustained a fracture at the base and body of the middle phalanx of the left middle finger following a transport bus accident. Although surgical correction was advised, he refused and opted for Homoeopathic management. He was treated with Bellis perennis 200C and Symphytum officinale 200C alongside immobilization with a splint. Radiographic images showed progressive callus formation and eventual complete union of the fracture. Homoeopathic medicines when used based on homoeopathic principles laid down in the Organon of Medicine can effectively cure surgical cases like fracture.
