The triangular fibrocartilage complex is a critical structure in the wrist that provides stability to the distal radioulnar ...

The forearm is made up of two bones, the ulna and the radius. A forearm fracture can occur in one or both of the forearm bones.

Introduction Distal radius fractures account for one-fifth of all fractures in the active elderly population and may cause chronic pain, loss of hand function and reduced work productivity, imposing a ...

A distal radius fracture is one of the most common fractures treated in emergency departments. Pre-operative 3D virtual reduction of distal radius fractures is key as it improves the recovery process ...

Scudder, 3 Brittain, 4 Key, 5 Cleveland 6 and other authors have stated that fractures of the distal end of the radius and of the carpal scaphoid can occur simultaneously . . .

Such injuries occur in a variety of sports due to substantial stress on the ulna and repetitive excessive rotation of the forearm. In this study we describe a patient who experienced an ulnar stress ...

Wrist fractures, involving the distal radius, are the most common fractures in children. Most are buckle fractures, which are stable fractures, unlike greenstick and other usually displaced fractures.

An end-to-end system to automate the well-known Tanner-Whitehouse (TW3) clinical procedure to estimate the skeletal age in childhood is proposed. The system comprises the detailed analysis of the two ...

Background Colles’ type fractures of the distal radius are one of the most commonly manipulated fractures in the ED. Local audit data suggest that a high proportion of these injuries undergo ...
