Radial Lengthening in the Management of Distal Radius Fractures: A Prospective Study of Clinical and Radiographic Outcomes

Radial Lengthening in the Management of Distal Radius Fractures: A Prospective Study of Clinical and Radiographic Outcomes

Background: Distal radius fractures (DRFs) may occur with loss of radial height and compromise the stability of distal radioulnar joint (DRUJ). Radial distraction during volar plating of DRFs had been reported to be a reliable treatment for DRUJ instability and pain relief. Here, we ask if radial le...
