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 کاملTreatment of unstable distal radius fractures with the volar locking plate
BACKGROUND Open reduction and internal fixation using an interlocking plate system has gained popularity for the treatment of dorsally displaced distal radius fractures. PURPOSE To evaluate the functional and radiological results of treating unstable distal radius fractures with the volar locking plate. PATIENTS AND METHODS A retrospective review was conducted of patients from one instituti...
متن کاملEfficacy of volar and dorsal plate fixation for unstable dorsal distal radius fractures.
OBJECTIVE To compare the efficacy of volar and dorsal plate fixation for unstable dorsal distal radius fractures. METHODS Forty-seven cases were selected from patients undergoing surgical reduction and internal fixation treatment in our hospital from August 2006 to October 2010, with 21 males and 26 females, aged 39-73 years old. Patients were divided into two groups: volar plate fixation gro...
متن کاملComplications and Plate Removal Surgeries after Performing Volar Plating of Unstable Distal Radius Fractures
Complications have often been reported in the literature after distal radius fractures treated conservatively or operatively [1-3]. Previously, the main indication for volar plating was a volar Barton or Smith fracture, but now volar locking plates are the most commonly used treatment for unstable distal radius fractures and during the last decade this method has become increasingly popular [4]...
متن کاملDifficulty in Fixation of the Volar Lunate Facet Fragment in Distal Radius Fracture
Recent reports suggest the presence of a rare fracture type for which reduction and fixation cannot be achieved with volar locking plate (VLP). In particular, it is difficult to achieve reduction and fixation with volar lunate facet (VLF) fragments present on the volar ulnar aspect of the lunate facet, because of the anatomical structure and biomechanics in this region. Herein, we report two ch...
