Purpose. To evaluate the functional and radiological results of treating unstable fractures of the dorsal distal radius with a volar locking plate. Methods. Dorsally displaced distal radial fractures in 30 patients (11 men and 19 women; mean age, 58.6 years) were fixed by volar locking compression plate and followed up for a minimum of one year. Results. At final functional assessment, 24 patients achieved excellent and 5 achieved good outcomes, with one patient exhibiting fair results. Radiological scores demonstrated 22 excellent and 8 good outcomes. No nonunion or infection occurred. Conclusion. Volar locking compression plating is a safe and effective treatment for unstable fractures of the dorsal distal radius.

Attrition ruptures of flexor tendons to the fingers following Colles’ fractures are very rare. In the case reported here, a protruding bony fragment caused a delayed rupture of the flexor digitorum profundus tendon to the index finger one year after a fracture of the distal end of the radius. Suture of the distal end of the tendon to the adjacent profundus tendon two years after the fracture produced a successful result.
