Study Overview
Brief Summary
This prospective randomized study compares functional and radiological outcomes of plating versus the 5-pin percutaneous technique for distal radius fractures. Sixty patients aged 20–60 years were evaluated using QuickDASH, Mayo scoring, and Lidstrom radiological criteria. The study examines operative time, complications, stability, and rehabilitation differences. Plating offers rigid fixation but carries risks such as longer surgery, blood loss, and hardware-related issues, while the 5-pin technique aims to maintain radial height with fewer complications and faster recovery. Results assess which method provides superior overall outcomes.
