Abstract Introduction There are various studies that reviewed the effect of cigarette smoking in fracture healing process. Nonunion, delayed union, and residual pain are the significant risk factors associated with smoking and fracture healing. Little has been known about the impact of smoking in distal radius fracture healing. We intend to explore in brief the effect of smoking in distal radius fracture healing and comparing it with nonsmokers having the same fracture fixation and analyze the outcomes with respect to fracture healing and return of function. Materials and Methods Of the total 186 patients, 92 were included in the study with (n = male: 31, female: 61) mean age of 60.2 years. They were divided into two groups: smoking (n = 43) and nonsmoking (n = 49). All had surgical fixation of the distal radius with volar locking plate and started on early mobilization. The range of motion of the wrist, grip, visual analog scale, quick disabilities of the arm and shoulder and hand score, Mayo wrist score, and bone healing period were noted between these two groups and compared with statistical analysis. Results The mean follow-up period was 8.7 months. There was a significant association of young age and male patients having distal radius fractures in the smoking group (p < 0.05). All fractures healed well in both groups without complications. There was no significant difference between these two groups in terms of range of motion, grasp, bone healing period, and functional outcomes. Conclusion Despite the well-known fact that, smoking has negative implications in the fracture healing process, we found group of patients (smoking and nonsmoking) with distal radius fractures treated by volar locking plates healed well with good radiological union and excellent functional outcome There is no significant influence of smoking in distal radius fracture fixation.

Radius Fractures

Intrafocal pinning of distal radius fracture is indicated in unstable distal radius fractures without significant intra-articular displacement. It is a simple and effective, minimally invasive method of fixation for achievement of alignment and stability of unstable fractures. The study was conducted between November 2013 and October 2016. Patients attending the emergency and outpatient departments with history of trauma followed by pain and swelling of wrist, were evaluated clinically & radiologically. Patients with distal radius fracture who met the criteria were enrolled in the study. The operation was performed either under regional anaesthesia or intra venous anaesthesia. Reduction was carried out under image intensifier guidance and intrafocal pinning was undertaken with 2 Kirschner wires as described by Kapandji. Above elbow slab was applied for 3 weeks. Kirschner wires were removed at 6th week. Follow ups were done with radiological and functional evaluation on 1st week, 3rd week, 6th week, 12th week and 6 month. Of the 30 cases enrolled in our study, the age ranged from 40 to 72 years and the mean age of the patients was 54.77 years. The female/male ratio was 5:1 and the majority (83%) of patient sustained injury due to trivial trauma. All fractures united by 6 weeks. In the final follow up at 6th month, assessment of range of motion showed almost full range of motion. Functional evaluation was carried out with Gartland & Werleys Demerit point system (modified by Sarmiento et al). According to the score, 9 patients had excellent, 19 had well and 2 had fair results. None of the patient had poor results. Kapandji intrafocal pinning provides a stable fixation and good functional outcome in extraarticular distal radius fractures with few complications only.

Abstract Background Reduction loss is commonly seen even in the newly designed locking plate fixation for distal radius fractures. Our study purpose is to investigate the efficacy of the variable angle volar locking plate (VAVLP) in maintenance of fracture fixation. Methods A total of 37 patients of unilateral distal radius fractures receiving VAVLP fixation were included. Forearm radiographs immediately after surgery and those at 3 months were retrospectively reviewed for analysis of radiographic parameters including radial height (RH), ulnar variance (UV), radial inclination (RI), volar tilt (VT), tear drop angle (TDA), distal dorsal cortical distance (DDD) and Soong classification (SC). Results By comparing the 3-month measurement and normal data, the difference of RH/UV/TDA was significant (p-value < 0.001) while the difference of RI/VT was insignificant. However, there was no significant difference regarding those five parameters between postoperative and 3-month measurement. Linear regression on DDD exhibited positive dependence with p-value of 0.002 between postoperative and 3-month changes. Postoperative SC was grade 0 in 13 patients, grade 1 in 21, and grade 2 in 3. There were 7 of Gr 0 and 2 of Gr 1 making one grade up.Conclusion VAVLP fixation in distal radius fracture can maintain radiographic alignment without significant reduction loss for at least 3 months. Realignment within normal range was in RI and VT, but not in RH/UV/TDA.

Abstract Introduction: The volar locking plate has been widely used for unstable distal radius fractures to provide early recovery of wrist function. Volar plate prominence to the watershed line has been reported to be related to flexor tendon irritation, and avoid implant prominence in this area was suggested. On the other hand, ultra-distal radius fracture patterns required the plate to cross the watershed line, making conflict over plate positioning on ultra-distal radius fractures. This study compared functional outcomes in patients with ultra-distal radius fractures treated with two different implants.Materials and Methods: A retrospective study was conducted, all patients who received a Synthes 2.4mm LCP or an Acumed Acu-Loc VLP between January 2015 and December 2018 were reviewed. The ultra-distal fracture pattern was the most distal horizontal fracture line within 10 mm of the lunate fossa's joint line. The primary outcomes including patient-reported pain scores, range of motion, and grip strength were assessed. Secondary outcomes included patient-based subjective satisfaction scores of the injured wrist and hand function. The Mayo Wrist Score and the requirement for a secondary procedure related to hardware complications were also recorded. Results: Forty-two patients met our inclusion criteria. Twenty-one patients were treated with the Synthes 2.4 mm LCP, and 21 patients with the Acumed Acu-Loc VLP. The primary outcome revealed that post-operative range of motion (P = 0.016) and gripping strengths (P = 0.014) were significantly improved in the Acu-Loc VLP group. The MAYO wrist score in the Acu-Loc VLP group was also significantly better (P = 0.006). Conclusions: Despite advances in implant designs, flexor tendon irritation or rupture is still a complication following distal radius's volar plating. We believe the Acumed Acu-Loc VLP design provided better functional outcomes than the Synthes 2.4 mm LCP if appropriately and carefully placed into its designed-for position. This positioning results in promising patient satisfaction when treating ultra-distal radius fractures.

Results By comparing the 3-month measurement and normal data, the difference of RH / UV / TDA was significant (p-value of 0.000) while the difference of RI / VT was insignificant. However, there was no significant difference regarding those five parameters between postoperative and 3-month measurement. Linear regression on DDD exhibited positive dependence with p-value of 0.002 between postoperative and 3-month changes; predictability after modification was 21.3%.

Abstract Objective Closed reduction and percutaneous pinning (CRPP) is losing popularity as a treatment modality for distal radius fractures. However, in select cases, CRPP may have advantages relative to open reduction and internal reduction. We aimed to retrospectively assess the outcomes after CRPP for the treatment of distal radius fractures. Study Design This is a retrospective cohort study. Methods We used billing records to identify all skeletally mature patients with a distal radius fracture who were treated with CRPP by a single surgeon at a level I trauma center in an urban city in the United States. We assessed the medical charts and recorded demographics, trauma and treatment characteristics, radiographic characteristics, and outcomes. Results All patients had a good or excellent range of motion regarding forearm rotation, and almost 80% had good or excellent range of motion regarding flexion or extension of their wrist. One patient had a concern for pin tract infection, and one had subcutaneous migration of a pin, which were both treated by pin removal. Conclusion CRPP is a good option in patients with few and sizeable fracture fragments in patients with a distal radius fracture, and it should be considered as an effective tool to restore radiographic parameters and functional outcomes.

Ipsilateral Hemiparesis

Background Little information exists to guide decision-making with regard to distal radius fractures in the setting of ipsilateral hemiparesis or hemiplegia. Methods Patients who sustained a distal radius fracture in the setting of ipsilateral hemiparesis or hemiplegia secondary to brain injury were evaluated. Investigated variables included perioperative pain, preinjury House functional classification score, length of immobilization, radiographic outcome measurements, and time to union. Results There were 15 patients with distal radius fractures with a mean age of 65.9 years. The mean clinical and radiographic follow-up was 2.8 and 2.9 years, respectively. Wrists were placed into the nonoperative group (NOG, n = 10) and operative group (OG, n = 5). Pain significantly decreased at final follow-up for both groups. Baseline House functional classification scores averaged 1.3 and 1.6 for the NOG and OG, respectively, and were maintained at final follow-up. Length of immobilization for the NOG was 46 days and OG was 37 days, P = .15. Radiographic outcomes at final follow-up in the NOG and OG, respectively, were a mean radial height of 9.3 versus. 11.6 mm, radial inclination of 18.3° versus 22.3°, 4.2° dorsal tilt versus 5.3° volar tilt, and tear drop angle of 45.6° versus 44.5°. There were no significant differences in these measurements. Time to radiographic union averaged 58 days for the NOG and 67 days for the OG, P = .42. There were no revision surgeries. Conclusions Based on this small case series, patients with distal radius fracture and ipsilateral hemiparesis or hemiplegia may have similar clinical, functional, and radiographic outcomes, regardless of nonoperative or operative treatment.

A Prospective Study

Our purpose was to determine the correlation of initial radiographic parameters of a distal radius fracture with an injury of the triangular fibrocartilage complex. In a prospective study, 85 patients with surgically treated distal radius fractures were included. Wrist arthroscopy was used to identify and classify triangular fibrocartilage complex lesions. The initial radial length and angulation, dorsal angulation, ulnar variance and distal radioulnar distance were measured. Wrist arthroscopy identified a triangular fibrocartilage complex lesion in 45 patients. Statistical analysis did not identify a correlation with any single radiographic parameter of the distal radius fractures with the associated triangular fibrocartilage complex injuries. The initial radiograph of a distal radius fracture does not predict a triangular fibrocartilage complex injury. Level of evidence: III

Level Of Evidence

We conducted a prospective randomized, multicentre study to compare short arm and long arm plaster casts for the treatment of stable distal radius fracture in patients older than 55 years. We randomly assigned patients over the age of 55 years who had stable distal radius fracture to either a short arm or long arm plaster cast at the first review 1 week after their injury. Radiographic and clinical follow-up was conducted at 1, 3, 5, 12 and 24 weeks following their injury. Also, degree of disability caused by each cast immobilization was evaluated at the patient’s visit to remove the cast. There were no significant differences in radiological parameters between the groups except for volar tilt. Despite these differences in volar tilt, neither functional status as measured by the Disabilities of the Arm, Shoulder and Hand, nor visual analogue scale was significantly different between the groups. However, the mean score of disability caused by plaster cast immobilization and the incidence rate of shoulder pain were significantly higher in patients who had a long plaster cast. Our findings suggest that a short arm cast is as effective as a long arm cast for stable distal radius fractures in the elderly. Furthermore, it is more comfortable and introduces less restriction on daily activities. Level of evidence: II

Objetivo: Avaliar o perfil epidemiológico das fraturas do rádio distal em hospitais de referência em Ribeirão Preto(SP), Brasil. Não existem dados suficientes na literatura nacional que corroborem com o perfil epidemiológico das fraturas do rádio distal. Métodos: 245 pacientes apresentaram 254 fraturas do rádio distal, ocorridas entre 2014 a 2017 foram avaliadas retrospectivamente para obtenção do perfil epidemiológico. Os fatores analisados foram idade e sexo, mecanismo do trauma, sazonalidade, tipo de fratura baseada na Classificação AO, presença de exposição óssea, lesões associadas, tipo de tratamento realizado (conservador ou cirúrgico) e o tipo de implante utilizado nos tratamentos cirúrgicos. Resultados: 60,2% dos pacientes participantes eram do sexo masculino e 39,8% do sexo feminino, distribuídos de forma bimodal. A média de idade foi 45,4 anos. Fraturas expostas corresponderam a 92,1% das fraturas e 7,9% representaram as expostas. Pacientes politraumatizados representaram 62,6%. O tempo médio de internação foi 8,09 dias. Conclusão: Apesar do padrão de fraturas mostrar semelhanças com outros estudos, o padrão apresentado pode não traduzir, de forma homogênea, o padrão obtido em outras metrópoles e grandes centros.Descritores: Fraturas do Rádio; Traumatismos do Punho; Epidemiologia; Hospitais Especializados.ReferênciasBruce KK, Merenstein DJ, Narvaez MV, Neufeld SK, Paulus MJ, Tan TP et al.
