Intra-articular fractures of the distal radius: a prospective randomised controlled trial comparing static bridging and dynamic non-bridging external fixation
J Hand Surg Br.
2003 Oct.
Abstract
This prospective randomized trial compared a non-bridging external fixator with a bridging external fixator system for the treatment of severe comminuted intra-articular fractures of the distal radius. The results did not demonstrate a statistically significant difference in the radiological and clinical outcomes achieved with these two treatments.
