ABSTRACT
Malunion remains the most common complication following fracture of the distal radius. The consequences of the deformities on the wrist function are analysed and a therapeutic strategy is suggested. The authors report 20 cases of non-articular malunion of the distal radius. Preoperative evaluation requires a comparative analysis with clinical and radiological assessment. Corrective posterior osteotomy is performed on the radius in 47% of the cases, an anterior open osteotomy in 37% of the cases, a lateral osteotomy with a closing osteotomy in 10% of the cases, and in one case; an osteotomy of radius lengthening. The bone graft is associated in 50% the cases. At three years follow-up, the functional results are been studied following the lilloise school quotation. Also, the good results became of 0 to 30% and the bad results of 60 to 10%. The non-articular malunions are usually caused by an insufficient initial treatment. Also, the re-orientation osteotomies with bone graft make good results in long term
