Methods All 6 consecutive cases, without exception, of comminuted displaced fracture in the
distal radius without volar displacement of the distal fragment (as would require buttress …

Background Severely comminuted distal radius fractures can be treated by different
methods. Our routine procedure in dorsal dislocated fractures is the dorsal stabilization with …

External fixation is a useful tool in the management of some of the more complex fractures of
the distal radius. Nonetheless, it has been associated with complications. When used in the …

Fractures of the distal radius are the most common bony injuries in the upper extremity, and
many treatment methods have been described in the literature. External fixation remains a …

Few studies have examined the potential adverse effects of excess distraction and
prolonged duration of external fixation for the treatment of distal radius fractures. In this …

ABSTRACT… Objective: To assess the radiological and functional outcome of external
fixator in the treatment of intar-articular fractures of distal radius. Study design: Descriptive …

External fixation of unstable intra-articular fractures of the distal radius has become an
effective tool in the management of these difficult injuries. Careful assessment of the fracture …

Despite the effectiveness of external fixation in the treatment of complex wrist fractures, the
complication rate for this modality ranges from 20% to 62%. Common complications are …

Background and purpose Bridging external fixation is used more frequently than non‐
bridging fixation in the management of unstable distal radius fractures, despite evidence …

Introduction Distal radius fractures are common injuries treated in a multitude of ways. One
treatment paradigm not extensively studied is initial treatment by external fixation (EF) …
