Hand numbness and carpal tunnel syndrome after volar plating of distal radius fracture
We report the incidence of late onset post-operative carpal tunnel syndrome (late carpal tunnel syndrome) and late median nerve neuropathy after volar plating of distal radius fracture by conducting a retrospective study on volar plating for distal radius fracture performed during 2002 to 2006. Two hundred eighty-two volar plating were performed for acute distal radius fracture after exclusion....
متن کاملComplications of volar plating of distal radius fractures.
Open reduction and internal fixation has been shown to be effective in the treatment of unstable distal radius fractures. When a dorsal approach is used, extensor tendons rupture or irritation are frequent and well known complications. Complications associated with volar plate fixation have not been studied to the same extent. In this study a homogenous series of 90 patients treated by volar pl...
متن کاملDistal radius nonunion after volar locking plate fixation of a distal radius fracture: a case report
We describe a 59-year-old man who had nonunion of a right distal radius fracture after volar locking plate fixation. He underwent open reduction and internal fixation with a volar locking plate system for a dorsally displaced, unstable distal radius fracture at a previous hospital 5 months ago. Radiographs of the injured wrist showed nonunion of the distal radius with 1.5-mm ulnar minus varianc...
متن کاملA unique failure mechanism of a distal radius fracture fixed with volar plating--a case report.
Various treatment options exist for distal radius fractures, and the complications associated with operative and nonoperative management are well documented in the literature. While surgical management with the use of various buttress and locked plating constructs has gained popularity, the long-term outcomes of these plating techniques have not yet significantly demonstrated improved outcomes,...
متن کاملVolar Plating as a Treatment for Distal Radius Fractures
Locked volar plating is the most common surgical procedure to address distal radius fractures. The extended flexor carpi radialis (FCR) approach continues to be an excellent method for visualizing distal radius fractures and applying a volar plate. (See Video 1, Supplemental Digital Content 1, which discusses distal radial fracture advancements and possible complications. This video is availabl...
