Distribution of fractures by occupation: Farmers accounted for the highest percentage (), followed by freelance workers (), workers (), officials (), students () and the lowest was soldiers (). The number of patients with one fractured bone occupied the highest proportion () whereas two fractured bones were only in . Conclusions: Bone fractures can occur at any ages, gender, occupation with difference causes. The percentage of open, closed fractures and types of bone fracture also can differentiate statically. * Keywords: Bone fracture; Motor organs; Epidemiological characteristics. INTRODUCTION Bone fracture of the motor organs such as spinal fracture, pelvic bone fracture, or fracture of the extremities not only has a significant impact on the health and the wealth of the people but also causes urgent social issues. There are many causes of bone fractures, and the rate of fracture can vary from one country to another. In developed countries, the most common causes
