Fractures of the distal radius are common injuries. Acceptable results typically can be obtained with appropriate surgical or nonsurgical management. However, a small percentage of these fractures can progress to symptomatic malunion, which traditionally has been treated with osteotomy of the distal radius.

Treatment of Malunion of the Distal Radius
Hand Clinics, 1987Malunions of the distal radius are common. Although the best treatment is prevention, symptomatic malunions can be salvaged through more careful fracture management, by corrective osteotomy or, in the presence of post-traumatic arthritis, radiocarpal arthrodesis.

Management of Malunions of the Distal Radius
Hand Clinics, 2012Despite encouraging results from small case series, correction of distal radius malunion remains a challenging procedure with uncertain outcomes. The most appropriate treatment for a distal radius malunion is prevention. If a symptomatic malunion is discovered, correction should be undertaken as early as possible. It is recommended that action be taken

Reconstructive Osteotomy for Malunion of the Distal Radius
Clinical Orthopaedics and Related Research, 1996Common misconceptions about distal radius fractures result in undertreatment of many fractures, particularly in an active population. Loss of reduction of the fracture may cause a symptomatic malunion. Fourteen patients with an average age of 39 years (range, 21-65 years) underwent reconstructive procedures for radial malunions.

Long-Term Outcomes of Corrective Osteotomy for the Treatment of Distal Radius Malunion
Journal of Hand Surgery: European Volume, 2010 Corrective osteotomy is an established but challenging treatment for distal radius malunion. Short- and intermediate-term results have been previously published while long-term results have not.

Corrective osteotomy for malunion of the distal radius
Archives of Orthopaedic and Trauma Surgery, 2000Forty-five patients were reviewed on average 5.7 years after corrective osteotomy for symptomatic distal radius malunion. Restoration of anatomy and function was assessed compared with the contralateral wrist. It was found that osteotomy of the distal radius alone did not completely restore normal anatomy and relieve symptoms, and in several cases a ...

Extra-articular Malunions of the Distal Radius
2021Malunion is the most common complication of distal radius fractures. Patients with extra-articular malunion of the distal radius often experience pain, especially near the prominent ulnar head. If the distal radius is well aligned and there are no degenerative changes, an ulnar shortening osteotomy may provide pain relief.

Minimally invasive osteotomy for distal radius malunion: A preliminary series of 9 cases [PDF]
Orthopaedics and Traumatology: Surgery and Research, 2015 The rate of malunion after distal radius fractures is 25% after conservative treatment and 10% after surgery. Their main functional repercussion related to ulno-carpal conflict is loss of wrist motion.

Treatment of Distal Radius Malunions With an Intramedullary Nail
Techniques in Hand & Upper Extremity Surgery, 2009Malunion of the distal radius are the most common complications of distal radius fractures. Increased angulation of the distal radius can result in altered load concentrations on the wrist, decreased range of motion, decreased grip strength, and residual incongruence of the radiocarpal and distal radioulnar joints.

Fractures of the distal radius are among the most common fractures treated by orthopedic surgeons. In the healed distal radius fracture, the discrepancy from actual alignment to anatomic alignment is malunion. Minimal malunion of the distal radius may be asymptomatic or cause mild to moderate clinical problems.
