Malunion is the most common complication of the
distal radius with many modalities of treatment available for such
a problem. The use of bone grafting after an osteotomy is still
recommended by most authors. We hypothesised that bone grafting
is not required; fixing the corrected construct with a volar locked
plate helps maintain the alignment, while metaphyseal defect fills
by itself. Prospectively, we performed the procedure on 30 malunited
dorsally-angulated radii using fixed angle
The purpose of this study was to evaluate the
risk of late displacement after the treatment of distal radial fractures with
