Use of Acu-Loc 2 Wrist Plating System VDR Plate for Complex Intra-articular Fracture of Distal Radius Case Study – Ruch

Case Presentation: Patient was a 66-year-old right-handed female who fell on her right upper extremity while playing pickleball. She presented with a closed, displaced intra-articular fracture of the distal radius. Radiographs revealed significant comminution of the radial column and a fragment of the distal volar ulnar corner. Due to the complex, intraarticular nature of the fracture, and the need to stabilize the critical corner, open reduction internal fixation (ORIF) was recommended. The surgery was performed under regional block at seven days post injury.
