Follow-up for Locking Plate Fixaion of Distal Radius Fracture

The current status of the disease under study. Including natural history, disease prognosis.

Distal radial fractures (DRF, distal radius fractures) are the most common fractures, allowing the user to lock the steel plate to accelerate the recovery of the wrist, but related injuries such as the triangular fibrocartilage cartilage complex (TFCC) tear or distal radius ulna joint (DRUJ) ligament tear with DRUJ instability requires time fixed or further repair surgery. If these issues are ignored, there will be weakness in the future. The ulnar shortening commonly used by hand surgeons is to improve the damage of TFCC or DRUJ instability. In the case of distal radial fracture combined with DRUJ instability, it is not clear that the distal radial fracture combined with DRUJ instability patients has long-term prognosis.
