Volar Distal Radius Anatomy Applied to the Treatment of Distal Radius Fracture [PDF]
AbstractVolar locking plate (VLP) fixation has become the standard surgical treatment for distal radius fractures. However, flexor tendon rupture is one of the major complications following volar plating. This detailed review on the anatomy and morphology of the volar distal radius might facilitate appropriate placement of the volar plate and thereby ...

Distal Radius Morphometry in the Malaysian Population [PDF]
The goal of treatment in distal radius fracture is to restore the anatomy of the distal radius, however the criteria currently used to evaluate the quality of reduction are based on Western based published figures.

Triplane Fracture of the Distal Radius
We report the case of a 14-year-old boy who sustained a displaced triplane fracture of the distal radius. This was treated with closed reduction and application of a cast with good clinical and radiological results. We discuss (for the first time) the reasons for the rarity of this fracture at the distal radius compared to the distal tibia.

Distal Radius Hemiarthroplasty [PDF]
Due to a higher risk for implant loosening, particularly of the distal component, patients with physically demanding lifestyles are infrequently considered for total wrist arthroplasty (TWA). A distal radius hemiarthroplasty may obviate the need for the strict restrictions recommended for patients treated by TWA, thus providing another surgical option ...

Malunion remains the most common complication of nonsurgical treatment of fractures of the distal radius and represents a common clinical entity. Symptomatic treatment often involves corrective osteotomy. Surgical correction is a challenging problem with unpredictable clinical outcomes.

Radiography of the Distal Radius
Summary: Imaging of the distal radius is of paramount importance in diagnosing injuries, indicating patients for operative or nonoperative treatment, and appropriately following patients for associated injuries and complications. Plain radiographs and fluoroscopy are the dominant imaging modalities in all settings because they are readily ...

Flexor Carpi Radialis Tendon Rupture in a Distal Radius Malunion
We describe a rare case of complete rupture of the flexor carpi radialis in a distal radius malunion. Though the tendon was not repaired, the functional result was acceptable.

UK DRAFFT : a randomised controlled trial of percutaneous fixation with kirschner wires versus volar locking-plate fixation in the treatment of adult patients with a dorsally displaced fracture of the distal radius [PDF]
Background: Fractures of the distal radius are extremely common injuries in adults. However, the optimal management remains controversial. In general, fractures of the distal radius are treated non-operatively if the bone fragments can be held in ...

Distal radius nonunion after volar locking plate fixation of a distal radius fracture : a case report [PDF]
2017-11We describe a 59-year-old man who had nonunion of a right distal radius fracture after volar locking plate fixation. He underwent open reduction and internal fixation with a volar locking plate system for a dorsally displaced, unstable distal ...

Background: Fractures of the distal radius are common. Closed reduction and moulded casting is often the first line treatment. Malunion after casting is not uncommon and can lead to discussion on acute surgical fixation versus delayed corrective ...
