Figure 1Radiological result after conservative treatment of unstable, intra-articular distal radius fracture in patient in the 40s. A 7 mm shortening of the radius is seen and a 2 mm step on the joint ...

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 ...

The U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) has granted 510 (k) clearance to a bone fracture fixation system with locking wrist plates. The wrist fracture system is “indicated for the fixation of ...

Kimberly Barrett suffered “an intra-articular fracture of the lower end of right radius, abrasions on her legs and a fracture of her third and fourth lumbar vertebra.” She was hospitalized for five ...

Twenty-eight patients older than 70 years with AO type C fracture of the distal radius were treated with arthroscopically assisted reduction combined with volar plating or external fixation. The ...

An intra-articular fracture pattern may also be a strong marker; however this was not statistically significant (RR 95% conf interval 0.94 – 20.59).

Malunion of the distal radius is a common complication following a distal radius fracture. The surgical treatment of a symptomatic distal radius malunion is a corrective osteotomy (CO) procedure aimed ...

Intra-articular distal radial fractures in young patients occur in high energy trauma which can lead to a combination of bone and ligaments lesions. Articular reduction should be anatomic because an ...

Factors affecting functional outcome of displaced intra-articular distal radius fractures. J Hand Surg Am. (1994) 19:325–40. doi: 10.1016/0363-5023 (94)90028-0 ...

Group II Fractures - With articular displacement Encompass all intra-articular distal radius fractures whose spacing between intra-articular fragments is ≥ 2mm. These are divided into three sub-groups ...

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 ...

J.R. Taylor et al did a study to report results of elbow hemiarthroplasty for comminuted, intra-articular distal humerus fractures in low-demand elderly female patients. The study included a ...
