Résumé
Introduction: Fractures of the distal end radius represent approximately 16% of all fractures treated by orthopedic surgeons.Our study is intended to find both conceptual and practical guidance for precision treatment with an expectant favorable result.Materials and Methods: Atotal of 50 patients of distal end radius fractures were treated with cast immobilization, percutaneouspinning, external fixation, and volar locking plate fixation. Fernandez classification was used. Functional outcomes wereassessed using Demerit Point System of Gartland and Werley (modified). The anatomical evaluation was done by Lindstromcriteria (modified).Results: Functional outcomes depend on patient’s age, fracture anatomy, displacement, reducibility, stability, and articularincongruity of fractures. They are related more to the anatomical reduction than to the method of immobilization. Volar lockingplate is a safe and effective treatment for unstable and metaphyseal comminuted fractures.Conclusion: According to Fernandez classification, Type I fractures were the most common. The volar locking compressionplate fixation gives excellent functional and anatomical results than other modalities of treatment. Hence, we recommend volarlocking plate fixation is the best modality of treatment among others.
