To assess and compare the functional, radiological and cosmetic results as well as patient satisfaction in patients treated with the IMN Device Vs Volar Locking Plate All patients who presented to our institution with extra articular distal radius fractures and met the inclusion criteria were invited to take part in the study. The patients were randomly allocated to two groups, those who underwent intramedullary (IMN) distal radius fixation using the Sanoma Wrx Distal radius nail and those who underwent fixation using a volar locking plate. The patients were then followed up at 2 weeks, 6 weeks, 3 months, 6 months and 1 year. The radiological parameters, ie radial height, inclination and tilt were compared as well as the functional outcomes by means of DASH score. The range of motion of the wrist was compared as well as the scar size. Complications were reviewed.Aims of study
