  • Title: [Osteosynthesis by plate in fractures of the distal end of the radius].
    Author: Piétu G, Raynaud G.
    Journal: Ann Chir; 1994; 48(1):70-3. PubMed ID: 8161162.
    Abstract:
    The authors recall the place of apposed plate fixation of fractures of the lower end of the radius, most of which are anterior. The ideal indication is the simple fracture by articular or supra-articular, compression-flexion. The importance of modelling and positioning of the plate is emphasised. The use of other types of fixation for composite systems is possible in complex fractures. Anatomical reconstruction must be obtained to ensure a satisfactory functional result.
