“…15 A fracture of the distal radius may be described as a Colles, Smith, Barton, or Hutchinson fracture depending on the characteristics of the injury. 16 Injury factors and patient factors impact the management and outcomes after DRF. Patients typically achieve optimal strength, range of motion, and function within 3-6 months, regardless of whether the injury is managed conservatively or surgically.…”

This paper presents the outcomes of treatment of AO Type C distal radius fractures using LCP plates and K-wires. The analysis focused on comparison of movement range and global grip strength between the operated limb and the healthy one.Material and method. The study involved 60 patients treated in the Regional Specialist Hospital in Zgierz in the period 2008-2013. LCP plates were used in 31 cases and fixation with K-wires was employed in 29 patients. The movement range and grip strength were evaluated in line with the standards of orthopaedic examination, using a goniometer and a dynamometer. X-ray imaging was used to assess the bony anatomy. The results were subsequently compared with those for the healthy limb.Results. The analyses showed that neither approach produced a grip strength equal to that of the healthy limb. In two cases of Type C1 fractures treated using LCP plates, the movement range was the same as that of the other upper limb; these results wer...

Abstract. We describe a fully-automated system for analysing X-rays of the wrist to identify possible fractures. Fractures of the distal radius in the wrist are estimated to be about 18% of the fractures seen in adults and 25% of those seen in children. Unfortunately such fractures are amongst the most frequently missed by doctors in Emergency Departments (EDs). A system which can identify suspicious areas could reduce the number of misdiagnoses. We automatically locate the outline of the radius in both posteroanterior (PA) and lateral (LAT) radiographs, then use shape and texture features to classify abnormalities. We show for the first time that fractures can be better identified in the lateral view, and that combining information from both views leads to an overall improvement in performance.
