## Abstract No consensus currently exists on the facture location of dorsally displaced distal radius fractures (DRFs). We present a systematic evaluation of the distal fracture line (DFL) location of DRFs and possible influencing factors. Determining the average location of DRFs provides a basis f
In a prospective controlled study, carpal tunnel tissue pressures were determined in a group of 56 patients with distal dislocated fractures of the radius at initial presentation, immediately prior to and after reduction, and 1, 2, 4, 12, and 24 h after reduction. Depending on the severity of the tr
## Abstract The strength of the radius depends on the mechanical properties of cancellous and cortical bone. By assessing both compartments quantitatively with bone densitometry. we tried to identify the specificity of each in predicting the load at which the distal raius will fracture. Twenty huma
