Abstract: | New solutions to difficult problems are always welcome, but nonbridging external fixation of intra-articular fractures is still in its infancy.Multicenter clinical trials are necessary to deter-mine whether the superior results obtained with nonbridging fixation of extra-articular fractures can be duplicated. With further study and new fixator designs, it is anticipated that nonbridging external fixation of intra-articular distal radius fractures will become another viable treatment option. |
