Patterns of injury and treatment for distal radius fractures at a major trauma centre

Bone & Joint Open, 2022
AimsFractures of the distal radius are common, and form a considerable proportion of the trauma workload. We conducted a study to examine the patterns of injury and treatment for adult patients presenting with distal radius fractures to a major trauma ...

The Epidemiology of Distal Radius Fractures [PDF]

Hand Clinics, 2012
Distal radius fractures are one of the most common types of fractures. Although the pediatric and elderly populations are at greatest risk for this injury, distal radius fractures still have a significant impact on the health and well-being of young adults. Data from the past 40 years have documented a trend toward an overall increase in the prevalence

Upper-limb physical activity after distal radius fractures treated operatively or nonoperatively: a secondary analysis of a multicenter randomized trial [PDF]

Acta Orthopaedica
Background and purpose: While most patients recover well from distal radius fracture, some experience prolonged deficits. We aimed to primarily compare high-intensity upper-limb activity 12 months after operative vs nonoperative treatment of malaligned ...

Epidemiology of distal radius fractures: a detailed survey on a large sample of patients in a suburban area

Journal of Orthopaedics and Traumatology, 2022
Background Literature lacks data on correlations between epidemiology and clinical data of patients with distal radius fractures (DRFs). Aim The aim of this study was to present a detailed epidemiologic survey of a large consecutive series of patient ...

Does Simultaneous Fixation of Both Distal Radius and Distal Ulnar Fractures Improve Outcomes? A Retrospective Cohort Study

Geriatric Orthopaedic Surgery & Rehabilitation, 2021
Introduction: Distal metaphyseal ulnar fractures are often found in conjunction with distal radius fractures. However, there is no consensus on optimal management.

Transitional fracture of the distal radius: a rare injury in adolescent athletes. Case series and literature review

European Journal of Medical Research, 2020
Background Transitional fractures are fractures in adolescents where partial closure of the epiphyseal growth plate has occurred. These fractures are most commonly reported in the distal tibia.

Functional outcome of volar variable angle locking compression plate in distal end radius fractures: A retrospective case record analysis

Journal of Orthopaedic Diseases and Traumatology, 2023
Background: Distal end-of-radius fractures are one of the most common fractures seen worldwide, accounting for approximately one-sixth of all fractures.

Fractures of the distal radius (Colles' fracture) [PDF]

Sao Paulo Medical Journal, 2007
CONTEXT AND OBJECTIVE: Although Colles' fracture is a common clinical situation for the orthopedist, we did not find any information in the literature that would allow safe decision-making on the best treatment for each fracture type. The aim of the present study was to investigate Brazilian orthopedists' opinions regarding the main aspects of ...

Distal radius triplane fracture [PDF]

The Annals of The Royal College of Surgeons of England, 2014
A triplane fracture is so named because of the three planes traversed by the fracture line. These are physeal fractures that result from injury during the final phase of maturation and cessation of growth. This fracture pattern typically involves the distal tibia. We present a rare case of a triplane fracture involving the distal radius.

Functional Outcome of Intra-articular Fractures of Distal Radius: ORIF with Locking Plate vs CRPP

Journal of Gandaki Medical College, 2018
Background: Distal radius fractures are common, costly, and increasing in incidence. Closed reduction and percutaneous K wires fixation and ORIF with locking plate fixation are two of the mostly used surgical treatments for dorsally displaced distal ...
