Case Series-Open Reduction Internal Fixation With Plating Of Distal Radius Fracture
Article Sidebar
Main Article Content
Abstract
Distal radius fractures are a prevalent orthopedic challenge, often necessitating surgical intervention for optimal outcomes. This study focuses on the application of Open Reduction Internal Fixation (ORIF) in the management of these fractures, exploring the nuanced interplay between patient demographics, fracture characteristics, and postoperative recovery. Through a retrospective analysis of cases, we aim to provide insights into the efficacy of ORIF, elucidating the factors influencing surgical decision-making and the impact on functional outcomes. The study contributes valuable information to the orthopedic community, aiding in the refinement of treatment protocols for distal radius fractures
