Treatment of Unstable Displaced Distal Radius Fractures Using Kapandji Technique
Abstract:Background: One of the most frequent injuries seen in orthopedic practice is distal radius fractures. X-ray is the most common test used to determine the presence of a fracture. In some cases, a CT scan is needed to confirm a fracture or exclude intraarticular extension. Intrafocal Kapandji wiring is a safe and effective technique for treating stable fractures of the lower end of the radius. Objective: The current study aimed to evaluate the results of treatment of unstable displaced distal radius fractures in… Show more
