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 ...

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.

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.

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 ...

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 ...

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 ...
