Are distal radius fracture classifications reproducible? Intra and interobserver agreement.
CONTEXT AND OBJECTIVE Various classification systems have been proposed for fractures of the distal radius, but the reliability of these classifications is seldom addressed. For a fracture classification to be useful, it must provide prognostic significance, interobserver reliability and intraobserver reproducibility. The aim here was to evaluate the intraobserver and interobserver agreement of...
متن کاملVolar Distal Radius Anatomy Applied to the Treatment of Distal Radius Fracture.
Volar locking plate (VLP) fixation has become the standard surgical treatment for distal radius fractures. However, flexor tendon rupture is one of the major complications following volar plating. This detailed review on the anatomy and morphology of the volar distal radius might facilitate appropriate placement of the volar plate and thereby avoid flexor tendon rupture. We introduce safe and s...
متن کاملEconomic Analysis of Bisphosphonate Use after Distal Radius Fracture for Prevention of Hip Fracture
Background: Osteoporosis is a common condition among the elderly population, and is associated with an increased risk of fracture. One of the most common fragility fractures involve the distal radius, and are associated with risk of subsequent fragility fracture. Early treatment with bisphosphonates has been suggested to decrease the population hip fracture burden. However, there have been no p...

Editorial to accompany the article: „The treatment of displaced intraarticular distal radius fractures in elderly patients—a randomized multicenter study (ORCHID) of open reduction and volar locking plate fixation versus closed reduction and cast immobilization“ by Christoph Bartl, Dirk Stengel et al. in this issue of Deutsches Ärzte blatt International in stage 5 do randomized studies compare ...
متن کاملTriplane fracture of the distal radius
We report the case of a 14-year-old boy who sustained a displaced triplane fracture of the distal radius. This was treated with closed reduction and application of a cast with good clinical and radiological results. We discuss (for the first time) the reasons for the rarity of this fracture at the distal radius compared to the distal tibia.
