Distraction plating for the treatment of highly comminuted distal radius fractures in elderly patients.
PURPOSE To evaluate internal distraction plating for the management of comminuted, intra-articular distal radius fractures in patients greater than 60 years of age at two level 1 trauma centers. We specifically desired to determine whether patients would have acceptable results from the clinical standpoint of range of motion, Disabilities of the Arm, Shoulder, and Hand (DASH) score, and the rad...
متن کاملCombined volar and dorsal plating for complex comminuted distal radial fractures.
PURPOSE To review outcomes of combined volar and dorsal locked plating for AO type-C3 complex comminuted distal radial fractures. METHODS Records of 24 patients aged 17 to 77 (mean, 53.3) years who underwent combined volar and dorsal locked plating for AO type-C3 distal radial fractures with volar and dorsal metaphyseal and intra-articular comminution were reviewed. 21 were closed fractures, ...
متن کاملPearls and pitfalls for comminuted distal radius fractures
Fractures of the distal end of radius have been estimated to account for nearly 20% of all fractures seen in a routine emergency room. Despite this, until very recently, the distal radius fracture was not treated as aggressively as other less common peri-articular fractures. Perhaps Abraham Colles’ perception that this fracture had good outcomes, no matter what was done had permeated our thinki...
متن کاملHardware-related complications after dorsal plating for displaced distal radius fractures.
There has been a trend away from dorsal fixation of distal radius fractures secondary to a historically higher complication rate. However, the literature on low-profile dorsal plates and titanium implants for the treatment of these fractures is limited. The goal of the current study was to evaluate hardware-related complications and removal rates after open reduction and internal fixation of un...
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...
