ABSTRACT
PURPOSE:
The purpose of this study was to examine the influence of radial overgrowth after surgical treatment for pediatric distal radius fractures. MATERIALS ANDMETHODS:
Twenty-two pediatric patients under the age of 10 years who underwent surgical treatment for a distal radius fracture without physeal injury were enrolled in this study. They were divided into 2 groups according to the ulnar fracture; distal radius alone fracture in 9 patients group and radioulnar both fracture in 13 patients group. The radial length, ulnar variance, and radial inclination at the last follow-up X-ray were measured using a simple lateral radiograph. The visual analogue scale (VAS) of distal radioulnar joint pain, the Mayo wrist score, and range of motion of the wrist were assessed for the clinical results.RESULTS:
At mean follow-up period of 3.7 years, radial overgrowth was 2.2 mm (p=0.01) compared with the un-injured side. There was negative ulnar variance on the injured side, an average of 0.8 mm (p=0.01). Clinically, mean VAS was 0.2, and the Mayo wrist score was 99.3. No significant difference in radial overgrowth (p=0.32), ulnar variance (p=0.99), VAS (p=0.29), and the Mayo wrist score (p=0.34) was observed between groups.CONCLUSION:
Radial overgrowth and negative ulnar variance was observed after surgical treatment of pediatric distal radius fracture without physeal injury. However, the radial overgrowth does not affect clinical outcomes.
