Anterior Plate Osteosynthesis of Fractures of the Lower Extremity of the Radius: Does the Systematic Use of Short Epiphysic Screws Limit the Posterior Protrusion of the Screws Without Compromising Stability

France100 participantsStarted 2019-10-11

Plain-language summary

Anterior plate osteosynthesis of fractures of the lower extremity of the radius may be accompanied by tendinous complications : tenosynovitis of extensors or even tendon ruptures caused by the end of the epiphyseai screws. The intraoperative measurements as well as the realization of the scopic pictures make it possible to estimate the length of the screws but the tendinous lesions remain frequent (5 to 15% according to the various series)
