Ankle fractures are the third most common osseous injury in the elderly, behind hip and distal radius fractures. While there is a rich history of clinical advancement in the timing, technique, perioperative management, and associated risks of hip fractures, similar evaluations are only more recently being undertaken for ankle blogger.com by: 4. Introduction. Distal radius fractures are among the most common fractures encountered in clinical practice, with increasing incidence in many parts of the world including the United States 1 and Scandinavia blogger.com a result, this fracture presents a substantial cost to a country's healthcare sector blogger.comgh multiple epidemiological studies have been done in Western populations, there is a lack Cited by: 22/09/ · Distal radius fractures have a high incidence among the aging population and may potentially result in poor functional outcome and impairment. 1,2 The incidence of distal radius fractures increases in women aged 65 and older due to the greater risk of osteoporosis. 3 Postmenopausal women are likely to develop bone-related problems due to decrease in estrogen production, which has been Cited by:

It is our hypothesis that a hemiarthroplasty replacment of the articular surface can provide satisfactory results in terms of range of motion, pain, and function for immediate salvage of a fracture that is not amenable to internal blogger.com by:
