Percutaneous fixation with Kirschner wires versus volar locking plate fixation in adults with dorsally displaced fracture of distal radius: randomised controlled trial
OBJECTIVES To compare the clinical effectiveness of Kirschner wire fixation with locking plate fixation for patients with a dorsally displaced fracture of the distal radius. DESIGN A multicentre two arm parallel group assessor blind randomised controlled trial with 1:1 treatment allocation. SETTING 18 trauma centres in the United Kingdom. PARTICIPANTS 461 adults with a dorsally displaced ...
متن کاملVolar fixation of dorsally displaced distal radial fracture using locking compression plate.
PURPOSE To evaluate the functional and radiological results of treating unstable fractures of the dorsal distal radius with a volar locking plate. METHODS Dorsally displaced distal radial fractures in 30 patients (11 men and 19 women; mean age, 58.6 years) were fixed by volar locking compression plate and followed up for a minimum of one year. RESULTS At final functional assessment, 24 pati...
متن کاملUK DRAFFT - A randomised controlled trial of percutaneous fixation with kirschner wires versus volar locking-plate fixation in the treatment of adult patients with a dorsally displaced fracture of the distal radius
BACKGROUND In high-income countries, 6% of all women will have sustained a fracture of the wrist (distal radius) by the age of 80 years and 9% by the age of 90 years. Advances in orthopaedic surgery have improved the outcome for patients: many such fractures can be treated in a plaster cast alone, but others require surgical fixation to hold the bone in place while they heal. The existing evide...
متن کاملInternal fixation of dorsally displaced fractures of the distal part of the radius. A biomechanical analysis of volar plate fracture stability.
BACKGROUND Volar plate fixation with use of either a locking plate or a neutralization plate has become increasingly popular among surgeons for the treatment of dorsally comminuted extra-articular distal radial fractures. The purpose of the present study was to compare the relative stability of five distal radial plates (four volar and one dorsal), all of which are commonly used for the treatme...
متن کاملDorsally displaced fractures of the distal radius: a critical appraisal of the DRAFFT (distal radius acute fracture fixation trial) study.
The results of the DRAFFT (distal radius acute fracture fixation trial) study, which compared volar plating with Kirschner (K-) wire fixation for dorsally displaced fractures of the distal radius, were published in August 2014. The use of K-wires to treat these fractures is now increasing, with a concomitant decline in the use of volar locking plates. We provide a critical appraisal of the DRAF...
