ABSTRACT Melone described a fracture pattern of articular involvement in distal radius fractures depicted as an orthogonal fracture line through the mid-sagittal and mid-coronal planes. This study ...

Find out what you need to know about a broken wrist or distal radius fracture. Discover the different types, causes, and treatment options for wrist fracture.

Given that the fixation of the intra-articular fracture elements would have increased screw traffic in the distal segment, insertion of a retrograde femoral nail would have been more challenging.

A distal radius fracture is a common bone fracture of the radius in the forearm. This type of injury is often called a wrist fracture because of its proximity to the wrist joint.

For distal radius fractures with post reduction radial shortening greater than 3mm, dorsal angulation greater than 10 degrees, or intra-articular displacement or step-off of the articular surface ...

Intra-articular fractures of the distal radius (IFDR) represent high energy, complex, unstable injuries, and account for approximately one-sixth of the fractures observed in emergency rooms. 1,2 ...

The duration of immobilization of distal radius fractures depends on whether these fractures can displace into an unacceptable position. Most radial fractures are liable to displace within the ...

The ORCHID study was designed to answer the following question: “In patients ≥ 65 years with a complex fracture of the distal radius with articular involvement, does open reduction with volar ...

Data on whether ultrasonography for the initial diagnostic imaging of forearm fractures in children and adolescents is noninferior to radiography for subsequent physical function of the arm are lim ...
