Abstract:
We report a case in which distraction plating was performed for bilateral highly comminuted distal radius fractures. The upper extremities' range of motion and function was acceptable. Thus, distraction plating can be a good option for relatively young patients with severe comminution of the radius and soft tissue damage.
