Irreducible distal radioulnar joint occurring in a Galeazzi fracture - case report
Abstract:
This is a report of an irreducible distal radioulnar joint associated with a Galeazzi fracture. The irreducible dislocation of the radioulnar joint was not appreciated until 2 weeks following compression plating of the radius fracture. The extensor carpi ulnaris was found to be wrapped anteriorly about the ulnar border of the distal ulna and was trapped in this position by the displaced ulnar styloid. The patient was successfully treated with open reduction of the styloid fracture and temporary wire fixation.

Fractures: Bone Repair
Minor fractures with no bone displacement are treated by immobilizing the fractured bone using a cast or splint. However, in the case of fractures with displaced bones, the broken bones are repositioned before immobilization to ensure successful healing without deformation and loss of function. The realignment of fractured bone ends is performed through a process called reduction. If the procedure...
