Radius fracture

1. Displaced extension fractures or flexion fractures

Most of them can be successfully repositioned by manipulation. For extension fractures, non-comminuted fractures that do not involve the articular surface are often repositioned by shaking; for elderly patients, comminuted fractures that involve the articular surface are often repositioned by lifting and pressing. After repositioning, the wrist joint is kept in palmar flexion and ulnar deviation, and fixed in a cast or external fixation brace for 4 weeks.

2. Comminuted fracture

For those who have difficulty in repositioning or are not easily maintained after repositioning (such as Baltons fracture), surgical repositioning is often required, with internal fixation by kerf pins, screws or T-plates.
