Volar plate fixation of distal radius fractures.
Volar fixed angle fixation may be considered as the beginning of a new era in restoring wrist function to patients with dorsally displaced distal radius fractures even in the face of comminuted or osteopenic bone. A thorough understanding of the anatomy of the wrist is a prerequisite when volarly approaching dorsally displaced distal radius fractures. The demonstration of the device theoretical...
متن کاملVolar fixed-angle fixation of distal radius fractures: the DVR plate.
Volar fixed-angle fixation of distal radius fractures is a new method of treatment that provides the benefits of stable internal fixation without incurring the disadvantages of the dorsal approach. The DVR plate is a new fixation implant that was introduced specifically for the purpose of managing both dorsal and volar displaced fractures from the volar aspect. Experience gained applying volar ...
متن کاملCurrent concepts in volar fixed-angle fixation of unstable distal radius fractures.
UNLABELLED We present new developments in the volar treatment of unstable distal radius fractures in adults. New perspectives on the anatomy of the wrist, the watershed line on the volar radius and the usefulness of the pronator fossa are presented and these help to avoid flexor and extensor tendon disturbance when using a volar approach. Other new insights on the bony anatomy of the distal end...
متن کاملBiomechanical comparison of fixed-angle volar plate versus fixed-angle volar plate plus fragment-specific fixation in a cadaveric distal radius fracture model.
PURPOSE To test the hypothesis that combining orthogonal fragment-specific fixation with volar fixed-angle fixation provides markedly higher interfragment stability and construct strength compared with volar fixed-angle fixation alone. METHODS Eight matched pairs of fresh cadaveric hand and forearm specimens were potted upright in cement. Flexor and extensor tendons were isolated at insertion...
متن کاملVolar locking plate fixation versus Kirschner wire fixation in distal radius fractures: a meta-analysis
Objective: The superiority of volar locking plate fixation and K-wire fixation on treatment of distal radius fractures was controversial. Thus, we performed a meta-analysis to compare the efficacy of volar locking plate and K-wires for distal radius fracture. Methods: We searched Embase, Medline and PubMed for randomized controlled trials which compare the effects of volar locking plate and K-w...
