Introduction: Fractures of the distal radius constitute one of the common skeletal injuries. This type of fracture usually results from low energy trauma in the elderly with low functional demand. The optimal method of obtaining and maintaining an accurate reduction remains a topic of controversy. Study was done with the aim to evaluate and compare the clinical and radiological outcome in patients with extraarticular distal end radius fractures treated with i.e., closed reduction and cast or with closed reduction, K wires and cast.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
