Dry arthroscopy of the wrist: its role in the management of articular distal radius fractures.
Most arthroscopies in the body are carried out infusing water to create an optical working cavity. Under those conditions we found the management of distal radius fractures quite cumbersome, not to say that compartment syndrome risk did exist ( ). Furthermore, when we used to use water to distend the joint, performing semi-open operations such as osteotomies, or distal radio-ulnar joint reconst...
متن کاملManagement 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 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 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 کاملCurrent concepts in the management of distal radius fractures.
The treatment of fractures at the distal end of the radius continues to challenge orthopaedic and upper extremity surgeons. As our understanding of the injury mechanism and local anatomy continues to improve, so too have our surgical techniques in helping patients regain functional use of the injured extremity. The purpose of this manuscript is to review the treatment methods available for dist...
