Abstract

Distal radius fracture constitute about 10% of total skeletal trauma involving both elderly and young patients and can be both extrarticular and intrarticular and has been treated with various modalities. Conservative mode of treatment has been in practice since time immemorial. However with enhanced anatomical learning and advent of increased operative procedures and implants, distal end of radius involving articular surface have increasingly being operated (atin). There are many shortcomings such as prolonged immobilisation, malunion, pin tract infection, which may result in fixed range of movements therefore this study was done to different types of wrist fracture and their management with open reduction and internal fixation with volar plating and its relative complication. OA classification has been considered in this study and post operative progress was determined with help of modified Gartland and Werley’s wrist grading system. (shushrut)
