About this trial
The study examines whether there are radiological criteria that can give an indication if a dorsally displaced distal radius fracture remains stable without the needs for surgery after closed reduction in patients between 18 and 65 years of age.
Eligibility criteria
Qualifiers
18-65 years old, living in Oslo/surroundings (available for follow-up)
AO class A2/3 or C1/C2 fractures
Dorsally displaced fracture of the distal radius (minimum VLDV more than100 or ulnar variance more than 2 mm compared to healthy side before reduction) with or without PSU fracture
Reduced to an acceptable position (VLDV 75-95 degrees, RIV more than 15 degrees, ulnar variance more than 2 mm, step/diastasis in the joint surface less than 2 mm)
Disqualifiers
None
