Volar Plate Fixation of AO Type C2 and C3 Distal Radius Fractures, A Single-Center Study of 55 Patients

Abstract

The treatment of intra-articular fractures of the distal radius with a volar locked plating system is associated with a small but statistically significant loss of volar tilt and radial inclination upon comparison of immediate postoperative alignment with that seen after more than 12 months' follow-up.
