Surgical options for distal radius fractures in elderly patients over 65 years old: A comparison of external fixation and volar locking plate

2023-05-10

Abstract excerpt

<h4>Background: </h4> Due to the lack of consensus on the optimal surgical treatment for distal radius fractures (DRF) in elderly patients over 65 years old, the purpose of this study was to compare the efficacy of external fixation (EF) with Kirschner wires and volar locking plate (VLP) in the treatment of DRF through a retrospective cohort study. We hypothesized that there would be no significant difference in o...
