BACKGROUND: Distal end radius fractures constitute one-sixth of all fractures treated in the emergency department. These fractures often are unstable, are difficult to reduce anatomically. Various modes of treatment include plaster application, External fixator, Plate fixation with locking compression plate. Recently, there has been an increasing interest in plate fixation, especially volar locking compression plate fixation of distal radius fractures. The purpose of this study is to evaluate the functional and anatomical outcome of unstable distal radius fractures treated by volar locking compression plate.
