Abstract :

Having been recognized for nearly two centuries, fractures of the distal radius recently have become the focus of an intense resurgence in interest regarding optimal management. Formerly considered relatively innocuous injuries incurred principally by the elderly, these fractures are now acknowledged as serious disruptions of wrist anatomy, with a considerable incidence of complications that affect a much larger segment of the populations. Frequently occurring intra–articular fractures, preservation of distal radial articular contours, is an absolute prerequisite. Residual joint incongruity of any extent is prone to the inevitable development of disabling arthritis. The study is intended to find out and assess both conceptual and practical guidelines for precision treatment with an expectant favourable result. Based on our study, we conclude that volar plating in unstable intraarticular fracture of distal end radius using locked plates had become an effective tool in the management of difficult injuries
