Fixing fractures of the ulnar styloid in distal radius fractures
The majority of distal radius fractures are associated with an ulnar styloid fracture [1-3]. There is solid evidence in the literature that this association may ultimately affect the clinical outcome causing instability, disability, and pain in the distal radioulnar joint (DRUJ) [2,4-7]. The main reasons for the worse outcome are: (1) DRUJ instability, (2) impingement with the triquetrum, and (...
متن کاملIgnore fractures of the ulnar styloid in distal radius fractures
Introduction Fractures of the ulnar styloid frequently accompany fractures of the distal radius, however, there is no conclusive evidence whether it influences the final outcome of the treatment. The majority of studies show no negative effect of ulnar styloid fractures on final outcome, when the fracture of the distal radius is fixed, preferably by a locking plate [1,2]. Some authors, however,...
متن کاملDynamic splinting in wrist extension following distal radius fractures
BACKGROUND Wrist flexion contracture is a common pathology which presents secondary to distal radius fractures. Joint stability, restoration and early mobilization are frequently achieved through surgical treatment after such an injury. The purpose of this retrospective study was to evaluate the initial effect of dynamic splinting on wrist extension (active range of motion), in both surgical an...
متن کاملResidual wrist pain after volar locking plate fixation of distal radius fractures.
A prospective multicenter clinical study evaluated, using the Hand20 and hand diagram, the disability, incidence, location, and predictive factors of residual wrist pain 18 months after volar locking plate fixation of distal radius fracture in 122 patients. The average Hand20 score and numeric rating scores for pain were 13.1 +/- 18.2 and 2.1 +/- 23, respectively. Fifty-seven patients indicated...
متن کاملDistal Radius Fractures
With the wide array of treatment options now available, this is an exciting era for the treatment of fractures of the distal radius. An improved understanding of kinematics, bone quality, and muscle forces acting across the fracture has led to increased awareness of a fracture’s relative stability, as well as the development of innovative devices to counteract these forces and restore stability...
