Analysis of management of fractures of distal radius with volar plating
Journal Title: International Journal of Orthopaedics Sciences - Year 2017, Vol 3, Issue 4
Abstract
Fractures of distal radius contribute to more than 15% of people attending orthopaedic emergency department. It has a bimodal distribution of occurrence comminuted high velocity injury in younger population to low velocity injuries due to fall occurring in osteopenic patients. The purpose of the study is to evaluate volar plating as a method of fixation for earlier return to activity and to study outcome of buttress plate with locking plate.
