Evaluation of Treatment of Low-energy Distal Radial Fractures in Postmenopausal Women.

1.The percentage of excellent and good results from both surgically treated groups (plate: 92.6%, K wires: 88.0%) was significantly higher than in the group treated conservatively (48%). 2. Open reduction with locking plate fixation of distal radial fractures produces better functional outcomes in the early postoperative period and reduces the risk of development of complex regional pain syndrome.
