DISTAL END OF THE RADIUS ( COLLES
FRACTURE)
Common fracture in adult ( > 50 years )
Women > Men
Weakened bone:
- Senile
- Postmenopausal
osteoporosis
This incident is common in slippery walking
condition
Factors that cause fracture on the distal end of
the radius :
1. Dorsoflexion
2. Radial deviation
3. Supination
Fracture pattern
Constant
Main line Tranverse
2 cm on the distal of the radius
Results of fracture
2 major fragments
Comminution of thin cortex
Common in osteoporotic bone (elders)
Ulnar styloid is teared
Normal length of distal end of radius > ulna
Joint surface angulated 15o towards palmar
Fractured reversed
Subluxation of distal radioulnar joint
Displaced fracture
Well reduced by closed manipulation
Major problem: maintenance of the reduction
Radiographs
Obtained 1 & 2 weeks after reduction
WHY?
Make sure the fracture doesnt slip to unsatisfactory
position
Fracture is still mobile can improve position if
necessary
Immobilization -> continued for a total of 6 weeks
AFTERCARE
Elevate forearm after reduction minimize
swelling
Exercise thumb, fingers, elbow, shoulder hourly
Shoulder stiffness
Malunion with deformity
Residual subluxation of the distal radioulnar joint
COMPLICATIONS
Malunion
Result from
Imperfect reduction of fracture
Subsequent loss of satisfactory reduction
Inadequate immobilization
Compartement syndrome
Infeksi
Cedera neurovaskuler
MONTEGGIA FRACTURE - DISLOCATION
Fracture of the shaft of the ulna and dislocation
of the proximal radioulnar joint
