Background: Patient-reported outcome measures (PROMs) are important tools for assessing
outcomes following injuries to the hand and wrist. Many commonly used PROMs have no …

The purpose of this systematic review is to assess the prevalence of complications following
volar locking plate fixation of distal radial fractures. A computer-based search was carried …

The aim of this study was to investigate the epidemiology of fractures of the distal radius in
the Swedish population and to review the methods used to treat them between 2005 and …

Purpose To determine whether volar locking plates are superior to external fixation with
adjuvant pins in the treatment of unstable distal radius fractures. Methods A total of 111 …

Importance Complications affect treatment outcomes and quality of life in addition to
increasing treatment costs. Objectives To evaluate complication rates after the treatment of a …

Objectives: To compare the outcomes after open reduction and fixation with a volar locking
plate or external fixation with optional addition of K-wires in patients aged 50–74 years …

BACKGROUND: Both external fixation and open reduction with internal fixation (ORIF) using
plates have been recommended for treatment of distal radius fractures. We conducted a …

Background In recent years, there has been an increased utilization of volar locking plate
fixation of distal radius fractures (DRFs). However, reported long-term complication rates …
