Comparative classification for fractures of the distal end of the radius

The Journal of Hand Surgery, 1997
As suggested by Muller, a useful classification system for distal radius fractures must consider the severity of the bone lesion and serve as a basis for treatment and for evaluation of outcome. Although these fractures have long been considered to be Colles or Smith's fractures, they have been subjected to extensive scrutiny in order to define ...

Bipolar fixation of fractures of the distal end of the radius

International Orthopaedics, 1979
The frequency fo secondary displacement in fractures of the distal end of the radius is very high and varies from 40 to 60% in various series. This results from the void in the epiphysis after reduction due to crushing of the cancellous bone. Secondary displacement can be easily avoided by the bipolar fixation method. This method is quite simple.

Fractures of the Distal End of the Radius Complicated by Fractures of the Carpal Scaphoid

New England Journal of Medicine, 1949
THERE is a teaching that a fall on the outstretched hand may cause either a Colles fracture or a fractured carpal scaphoid, the latter usually occurring in young adults and the former in older peop...

Fractures of the Distal End of the Radius

Clinical Orthopaedics and Related Research, 1984
From the time of Hippocrates to the beginning of the nineteenth century, fractures of the distal end of the radius were mistaken for dislocations of the wrist. Clinical observations, anatomic dissections, and experiments on cadavers dispelled this error. It was not, however, until after the discovery of roentgenograms that the variety and complexity of

Simultaneous ipsilateral fractures of distal and proximal ends of the radius

Journal of Orthopaedic Science, 2001
We treated a patient with a rare combination of ipsilateral fractures of the distal and proximal ends of the radius. A woman aged 52 years had simultaneous fractures of the distal and proximal ends of the radius (radial head and neck) after she fell from a high place.

Corrective Osteotomy of Malunited Fracture of the Distal end of the Radius

Scandinavian Journal of Plastic and Reconstructive Surgery, 1985
Thirty-nine patients with painful impaired forearm rotation and reduced grip strength after malunited fracture of the distal radius were treated with corrective osteotomy of the distal radius, bone grafting and internal fixation and followed for an average of 1.5 years. All patients stated that they were improved by the procedure.

Fractures of the Distal Radius

Clinical Orthopaedics and Related Research, 1987
The purpose of this study was to quantify the functional impairment following distal radial fractures and to identify the factors affecting prognosis. One hundred fifteen patients were assessed six months and two years following initial injury. On final assessment, subjectively, 56% had good, 39% had fair, and 5% had poor results.

[Fractures of the distal end of the radius].

Der Orthopade, 1989
Attitudes to the treatment of distal radial fracture are now more critical than previously, especially where intraarticular fracture is concerned. Inadequate primary reduction and such complications as redislocation or dystrophic problems lead to poor results.
