Distal radial fractures are still puzzling us 200 years after Colles’ classic description.
Despite the advent of various new imaging techniques, including 3D CT, the availability
of diagnostic adjuncts such as arthroscopy, and treatment options that include more
than 30 different volar locking plates, the rate of unsatisfactory treatment results remains
very high. Furthermore, while we are aware of more associated injuries, such as carpal
ligament tears and injuries to the radioulnar ligament (TFCC), there is still intense debate
on the relevance of these injuries.
This textbook aims to provide the reader with a complete understanding of distal radius
fractures, their inherent problems, and how to manage them successfully. It is written by
widely published experts from a part of the globe where distal radius fractures are very
common, especially during the winter months. Clear guidance is provided on diagnostic
imaging, classification, and assessment of fracture instability. The complete spectrum of
operative and nonoperative treatment options are then clearly explained with the aid of
step-by-step illustrations. Extensive information is also provided on complications and
their treatment. Both students and experienced practitioners will find this book to be
an enlightening, practice-oriented reference on the management of these challenging
fractures.
