Distal Radius Fractures in the Athlete
Clinics in Sports Medicine, 2020Although the technical details of distal radius fracture fixation in athletes are largely similar to the general population, the issues surrounding the injury, desire to return to sport, and rehabilitation require specialized attention. Athletes are generally healthy, with a drive to recover and must balance the risk of long-term consequences of ...

Nonunion of Distal Radius Fractures
Clinical Orthopaedics and Related Research, 2004Nonunion of a distal radius fracture is extremely uncommon. Healing problems in the distal radius seem to be related to unstable situations, such as concomitant fracture of the distal radius and ulna, and to an inadequate period of immobilization. Nonunion should be suspected if there is continuing pain after remobilization of the wrist in combination ...

Fractures of the Distal Radius
Advanced Emergency Nursing Journal, 2013Distal radius fractures represent 1 of every 6 fractures treated in emergency departments (EDs) each year. This injury has a peak incidence within both the 5- to 24-year-old age group and the elderly female population aged 65 years and older. An understanding of the functional anatomy of the wrist fracture will greatly aid the practitioner in proper ...

Fractures of the Distal Radius and Ulna
Journal of Hand Surgery, 1995Associated fractures of the distal ulnar metaphysis were present in 19 of 320 distal radial fractures requiring either closed manipulation or surgical treatment over a 2-year period. Four morphological patterns of ulnar fracture were encountered, the commonest being the type 1 simple extra-articular fracture of the distal end of ulna with minimal ...

Distal Radius Fractures in the Elderly
The Journal of Hand Surgery, 2015THE PATIENT A 72-year-old, active, healthy woman fell onto her outstretched dominant right hand. The wrist was swollen and painful to move. Radiographs demonstrated a displaced intra-articular fracture of the distal radius. After hematoma block, manipulative reduction, and orthotic immobilization, radiographs demonstrate a residual radiocarpal ...

Open fractures of the distal radius
The Journal of Hand Surgery, 2002A review of 18 patients treated at our institution for open distal radius fractures was performed. The patients were followed up for an average of 32 months (range, 12 months to 5.3 years). Wounds were classified according to Gustilo and Anderson with 9 type I (50%), 3 type II (17%), and 6 type III (34%) (3 IIIa, 2 IIIb, 1 IIIc) injuries.

Distal Radius Fractures in the Elderly
Journal of the American Academy of Orthopaedic Surgeons, 2017Distal radius fractures are common in elderly patients, and the incidence continues to increase as the population ages. The goal of treatment is to provide a painless extremity with good function. In surgical decision making, special attention should be given to the patient’s bone quality and functional activity level.

For years, distal radius fractures have been approached with the remark that “They all do well.” In many cases, this is true, even with significant displacement. But selecting patients who fit into this group can be difficult. The options and rationale for treatment of intra-articular and extra-articular distal radius fracture are discussed.

Epidemiology of distal radius fractures
Acta Orthopaedica Scandinavica, 1985In the county of Frederiksborg, Denmark, all distal radius fractures in inhabitants over 20 years of age were recorded throughout 1981; the population at risk was a quarter million, and fractures occurred in 394 women and 99 men. The age-specific incidence confirmed the rise in osteoporotic fractures over the past 20 years demonstrated recently in ...

Triplane fracture of the distal radius
Journal of Pediatric Orthopaedics B, 2006A case of triplane fracture of the distal radius is reported in a 13-year-old boy. This exceptional fracture showed displacement, and was healed by closed reduction and 6 weeks of external immobilization. Eighteen months later, the patient showed complete physeal arrest of the distal radius, with radio-ulnar length discrepancy but without any ...
