Treatment of Distal Radius Fractures
American Academy of Orthopaedic Surgeon, 2010The clinical practice guideline is based on a systematic review of published studies on the treatment of distal radius fractures in adults. None of the 29 recommendations made by the work group was graded as strong; most are graded as inconclusive or consensus; seven are graded as weak.

Fractures of the distal forearm have an incidence of 37 out of 10,000 females and 9 out of 100,000 males and are among the most frequent fractures of the adult population above the age of 35 years. In younger adults below the age of 39 years, high-energy trauma is more frequent, leading to a higher percentage of additional carpal ligamentous injuries ...

Journal of Pediatric Orthopaedics, 2012
To discuss the evidence base behind treatment of pediatric distal radius fractures.We identified randomized controlled trials addressing the treatment of children with torus fractures, minimally displaced fractures, and displaced fractures of the distal radius.Torus fractures and minimally displaced fracture is treated by removable splints instead of ...

The treatment of fractures of the distal radius is in a state of flux, because the results of conservative treatment have so far been unsatisfactory in 20%-30% of cases. Instability resulting from dorsal compression, damaged ligaments (60%) and the presence of débris in the area of the metaphysis means that, while reduction is easy, retention is ...

Complex Distal Radius Fractures
Orthopedic Clinics of North America, 2013Complex distal radius fractures are high-energy injuries of the wrist with articular disruption, ligamentous instability, significant comminution, soft tissue injury, and/or neurovascular impairment. The management of these injuries requires a thorough understanding of wrist functional anatomy and familiarity with a wide selection of approach and ...

Plating for Distal Radius Fractures
Orthopedic Clinics of North America, 2007No area of fracture management has had such a recent explosion of new treatment modalities as distal radius plating. This explosion has largely been implant- and industry-driven, with little evidence-based research guiding the way. A perceived difficulty with commonly used modalities by the orthopedic community has been enough to drive an entire new ...

Intraarticular Distal Radius Fracture
Journal of Orthopaedic Trauma, 2001A twenty-eight-year-old mason fell from a ladder sustaining an intraarticular distal radius fracture to his dominant right wrist. He is neurologically intact and has moderate swelling.

Comminuted Distal Radius Fractures
Orthopedic Clinics of North America, 1992Comminuted displaced fractures of the distal end of the radius pose a significant treatment challenge. The goal of treatment is to restore functional, painless motion of the wrist and fingers. Although satisfactory results correlate to a large extent with obtaining and maintaining normal anatomy, excessive distraction and a flexed wrist position with ...

Distal Radius Fractures in Adults
Orthopedics, 2002Although distal radius fractures are a common injury in the elderly and young adult population, the classification, treatment options, and assessment of outcomes of these fractures remain controversial. Since there is no uniform fracture classification system, it is difficult to compare studies.

Complications of Distal Radius Fractures
Orthopedic Clinics of North America, 2007Fractures occur at the distal end of the radius more frequently than at any other location. The reported complication rates of distal radius fractures in the literature vary from 6% to 80%. Complications may occur from the fracture or its treatment. This article reviews complications caused by distal radius fractures and their treatment.
