Synopsis
74 patients with unilateral intra-articular distal radius fracture undergoing internal fixation with a volar locking plate were randomized to receive either arthroscopically- or fluoroscopically-assisted reduction. The purpose of the study was to determine how the functional and radiographic outcomes compared between groups over a 48 week follow-up period. The results indicated no significant diff...
