Management of distal radius fractures.
T he discovery of the x-ray was 80 years away when Irish surgeon Abraham Colles published his paper about fractures of the "distal extremity of the radius." He had no idea about the possible intra-articular component of this fracture, but he knew that the fracture was unstable and frequently settled back to the deformity that "will remain undiminished through life."l The management of this very...
متن کاملSoft tissue complications of distal radius fractures.
Distal radius fractures account for approximately 15% of all fractures in adults. Care of these fractures is associated with a myriad of complications. This review focuses on the soft tissue complications encountered during the management of distal radius fractures, including tendon injury, nerve dysfunction, vascular compromise, skin problems, compartment syndrome, complex regional pain syndro...
متن کاملArthroscopic management of distal radius fractures.
Arthroscopy has the advantage of providing a direct and accurate assessment of the articular surfaces and detecting the presence of injuries associated with distal radius fractures. Current indications, although numerous and potentially expanding, also are controversial. This report presents a global view of the current status of arthroscopy in the management of distal radius fractures. The rat...
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 کاملEarly Complications Following Osteosynthesis of Distal Radius Fractures
BACKGROUND Distal radius fractures (DRFs) are common geriatric fractures with the overall incidence expected to increase as the population continues to age. The purpose of this investigation was to compare the short-term complication rates in geriatric versus nongeriatric cohorts following osteosynthesis of DRFs. METHODS The American Board of Orthopaedic Surgery (ABOS) part II database was qu...
