Evaluation of Radiological Parameters in Elderly Patients Treated Conservatively for Distal Radius Fracture

Aim: Distal radius fractures are one of the most common in elderly population. In this study, we aimed to evaluate changes radiological parameters patients treated conservatively for distal according fracture types and age groups.Methods: Patients who received conservative treatment between 10 January 2015 2019 were retrospectively screened. Fractures divided Arbeitsgemeinschaft für Osteosynthesefragen (AO) classification, into two groups as under 75 years old over old. Ulnar variance, radial inclination, volar tilt values after reduction at end examined compared with each other.Results: Wrist radiographs 232 evaluated study. According AO 151 had type A (A2:144, A3:7), 46 B (B1:6, B2:33, B3:7), 35 C (C1:21, C2:10, C3:4) fractures. While there 134 group old, 98 patient Radiological (except fractures) found be impaired initial evaluation treatment, regardless age.Conclusion: It should kept mind that may impair quality patients, accepted deteriorate. deterioration these was independent gender, presence ulnar fractures, classification.
