The forearm consists of two bones, the radius and the ulna, with the ulna is located on the pinky side and the radius on your thumb side. Fractures of the forearm can occur at different levels: near ...

Background: With new low profile locked volar plate designs for distal radius fractures, soft tissue complications are uncommon. However, there are still patients who request to have their implants ...

Fluoroscopy monitors intra-articular distal radial fracture reduction and stabilisation. The reduction is guided by traction, ligamentotaxis and manipulation, and when necessary, completed by ...

Conclusions: For high-energy distal radius fractures, volar locking plate fixation and dual-plate fixation achieved similarly positive functional and radiological outcomes. The dual-plate fixation ...
