The treatment of paediatric distal radius diaphyseal metaphyseal junction (DRDMJ) fractures is a challenge. The purpose of this study was to introduce a new operative approach at the proximal "safe ...

Physeal stress injuries appear to be more common during rapid growth, and may be related to a period of vulnerability of metaphyseal perfusion. There is little evidence to support a causal ...

Distal radius fractures are the most frequently occurring type of fracture in Norway, accounting for about 20 % of all fractures. Incidence rates indicate more than 15 000 of these fractures each year ...

Methods: In this study, 168 patients with high-energy intra-articular distal radius fractures with either volar fragments, dorsal fragments, or radial styloid fragments, who were treated with one of ...

Aims To examine variations and consistencies in the emergency management of distal radial fractures across England and Wales. Methods A survey was conducted of emergency departments (ED) in England ...

Treatment for forearm fractures is almost always operative, but nonoperative management can be used in specific cases — usually for an isolated ulna fracture. What is a forearm fracture? The forearm ...

Background The transradial approach for endovascular angiography and interventional procedures is superior to the traditional transfemoral approach in several metrics, including lower access-site ...

The radial head is located at the upper end of the radius, which is one of the two forearm bones. Radial head fractures are the most common fractures of the elbow in adults. These can severely affect ...
