Acutrak fixation of comminuted distal radial fractures.
The authors describe a new technique of fixation of comminuted displaced distal radial fractures in young adults. A 40-year-old man fell from a ladder and injured his wrist. He sustained a comminuted fracture of the distal radius. The fracture was opened through a volar incision and the three rotated, unreduced fragments were reduced and fixed with three Acutrak (Acumed Inc., Beaverton, OR, USA...
متن کاملComminuted fractures of the radial head
BACKGROUND There have been few reports on the long-term outcome of comminuted radial head fractures in adults. METHOD 10 women and 9 men with a mean age of 45 (21-65) years when they sustained a comminuted fracture of the radial head were re-evaluated after 15-25 years. 6 patients had been nonoperatively (NO) treated while 13 had had a radial head excision. The uninjured elbow served as a con...
متن کاملPearls and pitfalls for comminuted distal radius fractures
Fractures of the distal end of radius have been estimated to account for nearly 20% of all fractures seen in a routine emergency room. Despite this, until very recently, the distal radius fracture was not treated as aggressively as other less common peri-articular fractures. Perhaps Abraham Colles’ perception that this fracture had good outcomes, no matter what was done had permeated our thinki...
متن کاملExtra - articular distal radius non - comminuted fractures percutaneous pinning
Fractures of the distal radius constitute about 15 % of all fractures treated in emergency department. Closed reduction and cast immobilization has been the mainstay of treatment of these fractures, but invariably it results in malunion, poor functional and cosmetic outcome.This study was conducted to examine the functional outcome of non comminuted extra-articular distal end radius fractures t...
