A fracture (broken bone) can be classified as open or closed. An "open fracture" has been displaced and broken through the skin. A "closed fracture" may or maynot be displaced and is contained within the skin without skin breakage.
A wound is a break in the continuity of a tissue of the body, either internal or external. An open wound is a break in the skin or in a mucous membrane. A closed wound involves underlying tissues without a break in the skin or a mucous membrane.
