2. 1. Fractures of the distal radius : radiological measurements and clinical outcome

   Author : Viktor Schmidt; Sebastian Mukka; Mats Wadsten; Arkan Sayed-Noor; Maria Wilcke; Umeå universitet; []
   Keywords : MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; Radius; distal radius fracture; fracture; orthopedics; radiology; outcome; clinical outcome; Radius; distal radius fraktur; fraktur; ortopedi; radiologi; utfall; kliniskt utfall; Orthopaedics; ortopedi;

   Abstract : The most common fracture is the distal radius fracture (DRF). Wrist function is of importance for the ability to perform activities of daily living, work-related tasks and leisure activities. Treatment generally focuses on restoring anatomical alignment and providing adequate rehabilitation. READ MORE

4. 2. Distal Radius Fractures : aspects on radiological and clinical outcome and evaluation of a new classification system

   Author : Mats Wadsten; Göran Sjödén; Magnus Tägil; Umeå universitet; []
   Keywords : Distal radius fracture; Buttazzoni classification; volar; comminution; reliability; radiological outcome; clinical outcome; late displacement; Orthopaedics; ortopedi;

   Abstract : Distal radius fracture (DRF) is the most common fracture encountered in clinical practice. Every year, more than 20000 people in Sweden suffer from this injury. It has been shown that there is a correlation between malalignment and function following distal radial fractures and malunion may cause persistent pain and disability. READ MORE

5. 3. Scaphoid Fractures - epidemiology, diagnosis and treatment

   Author : Peter Jörgsholm; Malmö Handkirurgi; []
   Keywords : MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; Scaphoid fracture; carpal fracture; paediatric; radiography; CT; MRI; arthroscopy; scapholunate ligament injury; radial comminution; surgical treatment; conservative treatment; fracture union;

   Abstract : Abstract The scaphoid is the most commonly fractured carpal bone. The diagnosis is difficult and untreated the long-term results are poor. Approximately 10% do not unite even if they are treated properly. The aim of this thesis was to study scaphoid fracture epidemiology, diagnosis and treatment. READ MORE

6. 4. Injectable Calcium Phosphate Bone Substitute In Distal Radial Fractures

   Author : Philippe Kopylov; Lund Ortopedi; []
   Keywords : MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; Norian SRS; Bone substitute; radius fracture; injectable; calcium phosphate; Surgery; orthopaedics; traumatology; Kirurgi; ortopedi; traumatologi;

   Abstract : Fractures of the distal end of the radius are common and occur in many different forms. The long-term results after conservative treatment of fracture of the distal end of the radius in younger adults with special reference to degenerative changes and function are investigated in 76 patients (Paper I).

7. 5. Fractures of the distal radius : Factors related to radiographic evaluation, conservative treatment and fracture healing

   Author : Albert Christersson; Sune Larsson; Bengt Sandén; Karl-Åke Jansson; Uppsala universitet; []
   Keywords : MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES;

   Abstract : Distal radius fractures (DRFs) are one of the most common injuries encountered in orthopaedic practise. Such fractures are most often treated conservatively, but surgical treatment has become increasingly common. READ MORE
