Abstract:

Simultaneous fractures of the distal radius and scaphoid are uncommon. In a prospective 3-year study we registered 2,330 distal radial fractures and 390 scaphoid fractures, and 12 were combined. Ten of these had high energy trauma; six were styloid fractures, four Colles’ fractures, one was a greenstick fracture and one Salter–Harris Type 2 epiphyseal fracture. All but one of the 12 scaphoid fractures were stable and healed without problems, and one was a trans-scaphoid, trans-styloid peri-lunate fracture-dislocation. The study supports the opinion that the distal radial fracture constitutes t

Abstract:

Most distal radius fractures are associated with distal ulnar fractures. However, there is still a lack of consensus on the incidence of different types of distal ulnar fractures among adults in China. Therefore, we analyzed the incidence of distal radial fractures with and without associated distal ulnar fractures among adults in a southern China county from 2010 to 2020. Registry data of 2333 patients (2351 sides) with a distal radius fracture from 2010 to 2020 underwent evaluation, encompassing parameters such as age, sex, distal radius fracture classification, fracture side, and distal uln

Abstract:

The occurrence of a low energy fracture of the distal radius increases the risk for another, more serious fracture, such as a proximal femoral fracture. Early mortality after a proximal femoral fracture has been widely studied, but the association between a distal radial fracture and mortality is unknown. The date of death for all Medicare beneficiaries who sustained an isolated distal radial fracture in 2007 was determined using Medicare Vital Statistics files. The adjusted mortality rate for each age–sex group was calculated and compared with published US mortality tables. Distal radial frac

Abstract:

Introduction. Although not all malunited distal radius fractures are symptomatic, the goal of treatment for displaced extra-articular fractures of the distal radius should be to restore and to maintain the radial geometry until bone healing. However, the time course change after surgery for these fractures is unclear.Methods. We, therefore, performed a retrospective cohort study on patients who sustained such fractures treated with percutaneous pinning. The main outcome measures in this study included four radiographic measurements: radial height, radial inclination, radial tilt, and ulnar var

Abstract:

The radiological diagnosis of distal radial fractures is usually easy, but some fractures without displacement cannot be detected at the first examination. In this retrospective study of 626 wrist injuries diagnosed as “wrist sprain” we found 39 distal radial fractures which were discovered only after repeated examinations. The incidence of distal radial fractures was much higher than other wrist fractures that were diagnosed after repeated examinations. Repeat standard four-view X-ray examination, as well as other imaging methods, are necessary to diagnose these fractures.

Osteoporosis can be detected by measuring the bone mineral density (BMD) of the lumbar spine or hip with dual energy X-ray absorptiometry. Low BMD of the lumbar spine or hip is a strong predictor for future vertebral deformities and hip fractures. At present, elderly women with a distal radial fracture are not investigated for osteoporosis on a routine basis. The BMD of the lumbar spine and hip were assessed in 94 women (mean age, 69 years) with a distal radial fracture. A lo

Abstract:

Distal radial fractures are the most common adult orthopaedic fracture. We sought to determine whether the incidence of this injury is changing and identify trends in its occurrence. We analysed data for all adult patients presenting to University Hospitals of Leicester with a distal radial fracture from 2007–2016. Incidence rates were calculated using United Kingdom population data. Poisson regression techniques were used to analyse weekly, seasonal and annual variation in fracture incidence. There was no significant change in average age or incidence of fracture. Increased incidence was asso

Abstract:

Simultaneous fractures of the distal radius and scaphoid is an uncommon wrist injury. During the period 1980 to 1993, 23 patients with a median age of 39 years were treated for this injury. The median follow-up period was 7 years. All scaphoid fractures were undisplaced and located in the waist or distal third. An extraarticular distal radial fracture was observed in 15 wrists. A below elbow cast including the thumb was applied in 18 wrists for a mean duration of 9 weeks, and operative treatment was used in only 5 patients. All scaphoid fractures healed without complications. During conservati

Abstract:

Background: Distal forearm fractures were defined as distal radius fractures with concomitant distal ulna fractures, except ulna styloid fractures. Distal forearm fractures are common among geriatric populations, particularly those with osteoporosis. Conventionally, distal forearm fractures are reduced by a double incision approach; however, malreduction and instability of the distal radioulnar joint were not uncommon. We introduced a modified volar dual window approach to treat the distal forearm fracture and evaluate the functional outcomes and complications. Methods: From January 2020 to Ju

Abstract:

Background Dorsal bridge plate fixation is an effective technique for stabilization of highly comminuted, complex distal radius fractures. However, it is unknown whether fixation to the second or third metacarpal is optimal. Given dorsal bridge plating spans the radiocarpal joint, it is unclear if the dorsal spanning plate affects carpal position. This study investigates differences in carpal translocation resulting from bridge plate distal fixation to either the second or third metacarpal.

It has been reported in many literatures that different kinds of bone graft augmentations have been applied in the treatment of distal radial fractures with favorable results. The authors applied calcium sulfate cement in the treatment of distal radial fractures and evaluated the radiological outcomes of 33 patients. The radiological changes of cement statuses, implants, and radiological parameter of distal radius were analyzed. After closed reduction of the displacement, fractures were fixed by Kirschner pins and stabilized by percutaneous injection of premixed calcium sulfate bone cement. Pe

Abstract:

Fractures of the distal radial metaepiphysis are often complicated by forearm and hand dystrophy. One of the most important factors predisposing to its development is unresolved displacement of radial bone fragments. We observed 18 patients with irregularly healed fracture of the distal radial metaepiphysis complicated by posttraumatic neurodystrophic syndrome (phase II, III). There were 17 women and 1 man among them. The average age of the patients was 58.4 years.

We investigated the relationship between the incidence of distal radial fractures and mean annual temperature. Data for all adult patients presenting to our unit with a distal radial fracture from 2007–2014 were analysed. Incidence rates were compared with meteorological records. A Poisson regression model was used to analyse trends. Distal radial fractures were sustained by 8831 adults. The only significant change in fracture incidence occurred in 2010, in women only. This was the coldest year in the United Kingdom for over 20 years. Analysis by age bands during 2010 showed fracture incidence

Abstract:

Introduction: Humeral shaft fractures constitute 1–1.5% of all fractures, with most occurring in the middle and distal segments. While conservative treatment is common, surgical fixation is often preferred for displaced or comminuted fractures, particularly in young, active individuals. Minimally invasive plate osteosynthesis (MIPO) techniques have been developed to minimize soft-tissue damage and reduce the risks of complications such as non-union and radial nerve palsy. Although anterior approaches are well-studied, the posterior approach remains less explored. This case report highlights th

Introduction: Distal radius fractures are one of the most common injuries in orthopedics and conservative management is still the most frequently used treatment. Conservative treatment with closed reduction may still leave deformity that can be evaluated from several radiological parameters. However, of the many existing radiological parameters, there is no parameter that has become a standard for assessing good function. This study aims to determine the relationship between radiological parameters (radial inclination, radial height, and volar tilt) and the Radius Union Score System (RUSS) on

The outcome of 169 fractures of the distal radius in adults under the age of 50 were assessed at least 18 months after injury (mean follow-up, 4.9 years) using a validated, patient-based outcome questionnaire. The questionnaire responses demonstrated that neither the Frykman nor the Mayo classifications of distal radial fractures predicted outcome. Fracture union with more than 10° of dorsal tilt was associated with increased difficulty with everyday activities and work, while union with a step in the radiocarpal articular surface was associated with loss of wrist mobility and difficulty with

In America, accounting for about 8% to 17% of all fracture cases that have been treated and around 75% of fractures in the forearm. In Palembang, especially in Dr. Moh Hoesin general hospital there was no data yet about the number of incidents of distal radius fractures, how to treat (conservatively or operatively) and success rates. For this reason it is difficult to measure accurately, how likely is it that a distal radius fracture can be successfully
