Internal fixation of distal radius fractures.
When adequate fracture reduction cannot be achieved with closed techniques, internal fixation can restore anatomy and improve functional outcomes. Volar plating, dorsal plating, and radial plating are well-described techniques that are useful in isolation or in combination, depending on the specific fracture pattern. In this article, we review each of these techniques and provide case examples ...
متن کاملInternal fixation of pilon fractures of the distal radius.
When closed manipulation fails to restore articular congruity in comminuted, displaced fractures of the distal radius, open reduction and internal fixation is required. Results of surgical stabilization and articular reconstruction of these injuries are reviewed in this retrospective study of 49 patients with 52 displaced, intra-articular distal radius fractures. Forty-three patients (87%) with...
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 کاملRigid internal fixation of displaced distal radius fractures.
Distal radius fractures, the most common long bone fracture, are treated in several ways, including closed reduction, percutaneous pinning, external fixation, and open reduction and internal fixation. This article presents a surgical technique and a series of patients treated with a novel minimally invasive intramedullary fixation technique. The implant is a partially flexible intramedullary ro...
متن کاملDistal radius fractures: surgical treatment with internal fixation.
AIM OF THE STUDY To evaluate the efficacy of plates and screws with angular stability in osteosynthesis of fractures of the distal radius. MATERIALS AND METHODS We analyzed 52 patients undergone surgery for fracture of the distal radius at the Clinica Ortopedica dell'Università di Trieste; in half of the patients osteosynthesis was provided using Synthes' LCP plates, in the other half we util...
