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

Surgical Versus Conservative Treatment for Intra-Articular Distal Radius Fractures With Loss of Reduction in Elderly Patients. [PDF]
Orthop SurgPopulation: Elderly patients (≥ 65 years) with AO/OTA 23‐C1/C2 distal radius fractures and secondary loss of reduction. Comparison: Conservative treatment vs. surgical fixation. Findings: Surgery provides superior short‐term radiological and functional outcomes; long‐term results are comparable.

UK DRAFFT : a randomised controlled trial of percutaneous fixation with kirschner wires versus volar locking-plate fixation in the treatment of adult patients with a dorsally displaced fracture of the distal radius [PDF]
, 2011 Background: Fractures of the distal radius are extremely common injuries in adults. However, the optimal management remains controversial. In general, fractures of the distal radius are treated non-operatively if the bone fragments can be held in ...

Malunited Distal End Radius with Garden Spade Deformity and Distal Radioulnar Synostosis: A Case Report of a Quirky Wrist [PDF]
Journal of Clinical and Diagnostic ResearchDistal end radius fractures are the most common type of wrist fracture and a significant complication associated with these injuries is malunion, which can lead to deformities that adversely affect the normal biomechanics of the wrist joint.
