Abstract
Perhaps no other area of fracture management has been influenced as much by the emergence of new technology as the fracture of the distal radius. Using Medicare data, Chung et al evaluated trends seen in the United States regarding the treatment of distal radius fractures in the older age population.[1] The authors compared four treatment methods (cast, percutaneous pin, internal fixation, and external fixation) over a 10-year period from 1996 through 2005. The rate of internal fixation of distal radius fractures in the older age population increased fivefold from 3% to 16% in 2005.
