摘要
This retrospective study investigates the radiological and the functional results as well as complications following locking palmar plating on the distal radius. Eighty-nine adult patients with a dorsally displaced distal radius fracture were treated using a locking palmar plate at our clinic over a period of 25 months. The radiological and functional results as well as the DASH score were recorded for 77 out of 89 patients in the routine final examinations conducted on average 12 months later. The radiological examinations showed a relevant shortening of the radius among five patients. A dorsal angulation of more than 20 degrees as well as a radial inclination of less than 10 degrees was observed in 11 patients. Most of the patients showed good to excellent functional and radiological results as well as good results on the DASH score. A3 fractures in elderly patients and the majority of C1 and C2 fractures can be safely treated with locking palmar plating.
