Fractures of lower end radius are most common fractures of the upper extremity, encountered in practice and constitute 17 % of all fractures and 75% of all forearm fractures. The treatment was mainly manipulation and casting, since the generally accepted concept proposed was that although these fractures would heal with deformity, the functional deficit would be acceptable. With better understanding of the various fracture types, classifications, there was a need for a better method of treatment after careful study of the individual fracture pattern. The purpose of this study is to evaluate the outcome result of management of colles fracture in adults (>50) using variable angle volar locking plate.
