Clinically Relevant Anatomy
[edit | edit source]
Low energy extra-articular fracture of the distal radius. Can be associated with ulnar styloid fracture, TFCC tear, scapholunate dissociation.[1]
Mechanism of Injury / Pathological Process
[edit | edit source]
MOI: forced dorsiflexion of the wrist (FOOSH injury)
- Fracture is typically dorsally displaced and angulated
- Dorsal surface undergoes compression, while volar surface undergoes tension
- Typically occurs in elderly individuals.[1]
Clinical Presentation[edit | edit source]
- "Dinner Fork" Deformity[2]
- History of fall on an outstretched hand
- Dorsal wrist pain
- Sweling of the wrist
- Increased angulation of the distal radius
- Inability to grasp object[3]
Diagnostic Procedures[edit | edit source]
- Radiographic Imaging - dorsally angulated fracture of distal radial metaphysis
- CT Scan
Classifications of Distal Radial (Colles') Fracture
- Universal Classification of Dorsally Displaced Distal Radial Fractures Type I - undisplaced
- Universal Classification of Dorsally Displaced Distal Radial Fractures Type II - displaced
- Melone Type I - undisplaced and minimally comminuted
- Frykman Type I - distal radial fracture without distal ulnar fracture
- Frykman Type II - distal radial fracture with distal ulnar fracture[1]
