Fragment-specific fixation for complex intra-articular fractures of the distal radius: results of a prospective single-centre trial

The goal was to evaluate the efficacy of 2.4 mm column-specific plating for intra-articular distal radius fractures. In total, 105 patients with AO type C distal radius fractures were operated on using the locking distal radius system, Synthes. Follow-up assessments including clinical (wrist and for...

description The goal was to evaluate the efficacy of 2.4 mm column-specific plating for intra-articular distal radius fractures. In total, 105 patients with AO type C distal radius fractures were operated on using the locking distal radius system, Synthes. Follow-up assessments including clinical (wrist and forearm range of motion, grip strength), radiological (articular step, radial length and inclination, volar tilt, and ulnar variance), and functional scores (Disabilities of the Arm, Shoulder, and Hand; Patient Rated Wrist Evaluation) were made at regular intervals until 1 year. Union was obtained in all patients. Articular surface was anatomically reconstructed in 74 patients (70.5%). Clinical and functional evaluation showed significant continuous improvements over the first year. C1 fractures had a better chance of anatomical reduction compared with C2 and C3 fractures. Fracture type, quality of reduction, and presence of degenerative changes did not show a significant effect on functional outcome scores. Column-specific fixation of the distal radius can achieve satisfactory results in complex intra-articular fractures.
