Patient-related outcome, fracture displacement and bone mineral density following distal radius fracture in young and older men

open access: yesBMC Musculoskeletal Disorders, 2020
Background Distal radius fractures can adversely affect wrist function; for men with this fracture, the role played by fracture severity, age and osteoporosis on fracture outcome has not been sufficiently studied.

Distal radius fractures in the athlete [PDF]

open access: yesCurrent Reviews in Musculoskeletal Medicine, 2017
Distal radius fractures are one of the most common upper extremity fractures. Athletes with distal radius fractures are treated according to the same principles as non-athletes but present several unique considerations. At all levels of sport, injured athletes desire to return to play as rapidly as possible.Earlier operative fixation may allow an ...

Point-of-Care Ultrasound Fracture–Physis Distance Association with Salter–Harris II Fractures of the Distal Radius in Children: The “POCUS 1-cm Rule”

open access: yes, 2023
Salter–Harris II fractures of the distal radius can result in serious complications. The aim of this study was to measure the fracture–physis distance using point-of-care ultrasound (POCUS) to determine whether a certain distance is associated with ...

Ulnar Nerve Palsy Following Fracture of the Distal Radius in an Adolescent: A Case Report

open access: yesKaohsiung Journal of Medical Sciences, 2007
In adolescents, neurovascular injury, especially ulnar nerve injury, is rare with fracture of the distal radius. We present a 14-year-old boy who sustained fracture of the distal radius in his right wrist, who also had symptoms of ulnar nerve injury ...

The Effect of Fracture Type on Restoration of Radiographic Parameters and Early Loss of Reduction in Surgical Treated Distal Radius Fractures

open access: yesTrauma Care, 2023
Purpose: Early loss of reduction remains a challenging complication in distal radius fracture management. There are limited data on factors that correlate with early loss of reduction.

Prolonged opioid use after distal radius fracture

open access: yes, 2023
BACKGROUND: Prolonged opioid use (more than 90 days) after injury puts the patient at risk for adverse effects. We investigated the patterns of opioid prescription after distal radius fracture and the effect of pre- and post-fracture factors on the risk ...

Emergency physicians performed Point-of-Care-Ultrasonography for detecting distal forearm fracture

open access: yesTurkish Journal of Emergency Medicine, 2016
Objectives: Several studies focusing diagnosis of forearm fracture using Point-of-Care-Ultrasonography (POCUS) had been carried out in children. There is a lack of evidence for the utility of sonographic (US) examination for detecting of distal forearm ...

Functional outcome and experiences concerning daily life after malunion of the distal radius and corrective osteotomy [PDF]

open access: yes, 2020
BACKGROUND. Distal radius fractures are common injuries that occur at all ages. The commonest complication is that the fracture heals in malunion. This can negatively affect function and the ability to perform activities.
