Thirty patients who had sustained a Colles' fracture at least four years previously were examined functionally and radiographically. Seventeen had a good radiological result and 13 were considered to have malunion. Functionally the displaced group performed significantly worse than the undisplaced group. We conclude that malunion of a Colles' fracture results in a weak, deformed, stiff and probably painful wrist.
