Surgical outcomes of elderly patients aged more than 80 years with distal radius fracture: comparison of external fixation and locking plate
Abstract Background To compare the outcomes after surgical intervention, including external fixation (EF) with the optional addition of K-pins or open reduction and internal fixation (ORIF) with a volar locking plate (VLP), in patients with distal radius fracture aged > 80 years. Methods We revie...
