Nonbridging external fixation for fractures of the distal radius.
OBJECTIVE To assess the feasibility of using standard components from the small AO external fixator set to support fractures of the distal radius with a construct incorporating distal fixation in the periarticular radius fragment that would allow for primary mobilization of the wrist joint during fracture healing. METHODS In a prospective pilot study of a nonbridging external fixator in early...
متن کاملExternal fixation of fractures of the distal radius
BACKGROUND AND PURPOSE External fixators allowing movement during fracture healing are commonly used for treatment of unstable distal radius fractures. The dynamic Dynawrist fixator with the distal pins in metacarpal bone may avoid fixation problems in comminuted fractures and may reduce the risk of nerve injury. We compared anatomical and functional outcome for the well-established Hoffmann co...
متن کاملComparison of internal and external fixation of distal radius fractures
BACKGROUND AND PURPOSE There is no consensus on the difference in effects of internal fixation (IF) and external fixation (EF) on outcomes for the treatment of distal radius fractures. We performed a meta-analysis of randomized clinical studies. METHODS We searched the literature and included studies that compared the effects of IF and EF on the treatment of distal radius fractures. Statistic...
متن کاملNonbridging external fixation of intra-articular distal radius fractures.
New solutions to difficult problems are always welcome, but nonbridging external fixation of intra-articular fractures is still in its infancy. Multicenter clinical trials are necessary to deter-mine whether the superior results obtained with nonbridging fixation of extra-articular fractures can be duplicated. With further study and new fixator designs, it is anticipated that nonbridging extern...
متن کاملComparison of close reduction and percutaneous pin fixation as treatments for distal metaphyseal radius fractures
Background: Distal radius fractures are one of the most common fractures of skeletal system and because of the aging of population, its incidence is rising. The aim of the present research was to evaluate the close reduction and percutaneous pin fixation as a treatment option. Material and methods: 44 patients who were type 2 according to universal classification or type 2 or 3 according to Ol...
