Mechanical Complication of Internal Rod Fixation Device
Internal Fixation; Complications
Registration Number
NCT06723483
Lead Sponsor
Mina Hany Moris Zakhary
Brief Summary

using a plate as a distraction method bridging the comminution to restore anatomical parameters to treat comminuted distal radius fracture follow-up functional outcomes of the wrist after metal removal

Detailed Description

The plate is extended from the floor of the 2end extensor compartment at an intact radius to the 2end metacarpal by dual minimally invasive skin incisions.

One distal over 2end metacarpal and Other proximal over 2end extensor compartment at intact radius application of distal screws 1st, then the traction is done to restore radial length, radial inclination, and volar tilt followed by the application of proximal screws add wires to restore the joint congruity wire removal after 45 days, plate removal after 100 day follow up every 3 months till 1 year post-operative Assess the Functional Outcome Of the wrist joint after metal removal
