 Background: Mal:::union::: is the most common complication following distal radius fractures. Aim of this study was to evaluate the results of distal radius corrective osteotomy and plate fixation by dorsal approach in the mal:::union:::. Methods: In this retrospective study, 14 patients with neglected distal radius mal:::union::: from 2005 to 2011 were studied. All patients were treated ...

Volar plate fi xation with use of either a locking plate or a neutralization plate has become increasingly popular among surgeons for the treatment of dorsally comminuted distal radial fractures. When doing volar plating of radius fractures, we observed a considerable variation in the morphology of the distal radius. Research in the literature reveals rare information about the anatomic variati...

PURPOSE To evaluate and compare the biomechanical properties of 8 different locked fixed-angle volar distal radius plates under conditions designed to reflect forces seen in early fracture healing and postoperative rehabilitation. METHODS We evaluated the Acumed Acu-Loc (Acumed, Hillsboro, OR), Hand Innovations DVR (Hand Innovations, Miami, FL), SBi SCS volar distal radial plate (Small Bone I...
