The use of a removable splint also improves the functional outcomes in the treatment of both intra- and extra-articular distal radius fractures.

📌 3 Key Takeaways

🎯
Objective & Hypothesis:BACKGROUND: The aim of the study was to investigate whether the number and position of Kirschner (K)-wires, and the manner and duration of immobilization influence radiologic and functional outcomes of distal radius fractures treated with percutaneous K-wire fixation.METHODS: Ninety-two patients were included into the study with a mean follow-up period of 19.84±5.22 months (range, 13-34 months).
📊
Key Findings & Data:In Group I, forty-five patients were treated with 3 K-wires and supported with a volar semi-circular cast for the first 3 weeks followed by a removable splint for a further 3 weeks.
💡
Conclusion & Impact:The use of a removable splint also improves the functional outcomes in the treatment of both intra- and extra-articular distal radius fractures.

Abstract

BACKGROUND: The aim of the study was to investigate whether the number and position of Kirschner (K)-wires, and the manner and duration of immobilization influence radiologic and functional outcomes of distal radius fractures treated with percutaneous K-wire fixation.METHODS: Ninety-two patients were included into the study with a mean follow-up period of 19.84±5.22 months (range, 13-34 months). In Group I, forty-five patients were treated with 3 K-wires and supported with a volar semi-circular cast for the first 3 weeks followed by a removable splint for a further 3 weeks. In Group II, forty-seven patients were treated with 2 K-wires and supported with a below-elbow circular cast for 6 weeks postoperatively.RESULTS: No significant difference in grip strength and DASH scores was found between the two groups. In clinical examination, significantly better functional results were determined in patients supported with a removable volar splint. At 6 weeks postoperatively, volar tilt, radial inclination, and radial length were significantly better in Group I compared to Group II (all p values).CONCLUSION: Tripod technique with 3 K-wires is a safe and reliable procedure to achieve stability and good radiological results. The use of a removable splint also improves the functional outcomes in the treatment of both intra- and extra-articular distal radius fractures.

Özet

AMAÇ: Bu çalışmanın amacı, Kirschner (K) tellerinin sayısı ve pozisyonunun ve immobilizasyon şekli ve süresinin, kapalı olarak K-teli fiksasyonu ile tedavi edilen distal radius kırıklarının radyolojik ve fonksiyonel sonuçları üzerine etkisini araştırmaktır.GEREÇ VE YÖNTEM: Doksan iki hasta ortalama 19.84±5.22 ay (aralık: 13-34 ay) takip ile çalışmaya alındı. Grup I'deki 45 hastaya üç adet K-teli ile tespit sağlandı ve ilk üç hafta volar yarım alçı ile, sonraki üç hafta da ise çıkarılabilir splintle desteklendi. Grup II'deki, 47 hasta ise iki adet K-teli ile tespit edildi ve ameliyat sonrası altı hafta dirsek altı sirküler alçıyla desteklendi.BULGULAR: Her iki grup arasında kavrama gücü ve DASH skorları arasında önemli bir değişiklik yoktu. Klinik muayenede, daha iyi fonksiyonel sonuçlar, çıkarılabilir volar splint ile desteklenen hastalarda saptandı. Ameliyat sonrası altıncı haftada, volar tilt, radial inklinasyon ve radial yükseklik Grup I'deki hastalarda Grup II'dekilerden daha iyi idi (tüm p değerleri <0.05).TARTIŞMA: Tripod tekniğiyle üç K-teli uygulaması stabilite ve iyi radyolojik sonuçlar elde etmek için güvenli ve geçerli bir yöntemdir. Çıkarılabilir splint kullanımı, eklem içi ve eklem dışı distal radius kırıklarının tedavisinde fonksiyonel sonuçları geliştirmektedir.
