Fracture of the distal radial shaft: mistakes in management. Management of complications of forearm fractures.
High (up to 90%) complications rates seen if treated nonoperatively ( Perron 2001, Hughston 1957)Ītesok KI et al.Requires ORIF for acceptable outcome because of loss of stability at DRUJ and pull of forearm muscles causes loss of proper alignment in cast,.If unable to reduce, orthopedic consult in ED.Closed reduction of the radius followed by reduction of the ulna in the DRUJ, with application of long arm splint.Managed conservatively, if non-reducible or unstable may require ORIF.There is usually a displaced fracture in the radius and a dislocation of the ulna at the wrist, where the radius and ulna come together. This injury affects both bones of the forearm. Closed reduction of radius fracture and splinting with long arm splint in supination The fracture extends through a portion of the bone, causing it to bend on the other side.Managed with ORIF If unable to reduce radial head, orthopedic consult in ED.Priority is closed reduction of the radial head with attention to anatomic alignment of ulna with application of long arm splint.DRUJ and elbow forGaleazzi fracturesMonteggia fracturescompartment.

Inability to reduce radial head: Discuss with orthopedics for prompt consultation in ED vs admission for OR vs transfer to pediatric orthopedic referral center QBank Search Questions My TestMaster Create Personal Test Create Group Test Enter Test Code Active Test Cases.Ensure anatomic alignment of the ulna and place in supinated long arm splint.The Orthobullets Podcast In this episode, we review the high-yield topic of Galeazzi Fractures from the Trauma section.Priority is closed reduction of radial head, often made difficult by associated plastic/greenstick deformity.It classically involves an isolated fracture of the junction of the distal third and middle third of the radius with associated subluxation or dislocation of the distal radio-ulnar joint the injury disrupts the forearm axis. If discharging from ED after reduction, all need close follow-up with orthopedics (within 1 week) The Galeazzi fracture is a fracture of the distal third of the radius with dislocation of the distal radioulnar joint.All cases should be discussed with an orthopedist.Open fractures require immediate orthopedic consultation in the ED.
