Abstract
Wrist fractures are common and may significantly impair the overall function of the upper extremity unless properly managed. Fractures of the distal radius are particularly common among the aging population, accounting for nearly 1/6 of all fractures, often as a result of increased longevity with the subsequent underlying osteoporosis.
New diagnostic tools, including wrist arthroscopy,magnetic resonance imaging, or computed tomography, are increasingly available
in developed countries allowing accurate recognition and more effective
resolution of lesions which would be otherwise missed using conventional methods.
