Radius distal end fractures are common orthopedic injuries. Many methods have been described in the treatment of distal radius fractures. The fixation of radius distal end fracture with volar plate was first applied by Ellis in 1965. Over the years, ideas have been put forward on the materials used for plates and the radiolucent carbon fiber plates has been used. These plates cause less artifact in computed tomography (CT) and magnetic resonance examinations (MRI), allow a better evaluation of the fracture, exhibit biomechanical characteristics close to the cortical bone, and do not cause a coldwedding in patients.
