Minimal Invasive Volar Plating Versus Cast Immobilization for Treatment of Stable Non-displaced Distal Radial Fractures.

NCT05015556 · Status: UNKNOWN · Phase: NA · Type: INTERVENTIONAL · Enrollment: 90

Last updated 2022-10-05

No results posted yet for this study

Summary

Nondisplaced distal radial fractures are nowadays treated by plaster cast immobilization. In this study, the investigators challenge this classical standard treatment with a surgical solution: minimal invasive volar plating with pronatus quadratus sparing approach. Potential benefits of this surgical treatment are higher cost effectiveness, economical benefit, earlier recuperation of professional and recreational activities, earlier functional recuperation by faster clinical recovery (range of motion, grip strength) and decreased risk of secondary fracture displacement. Potential drawbacks are surgical risks and complications.
