Modified Minimally Invasive Reduction and Osteosynthesis System Technique for Fixation of Distal Radius

Aim & Background: Distal radius fractures are among the most frequently encountered bone injuries. Percutaneous pinning with a modified minimally invasive technique offers a less invasive alternative to conventional surgical interventions. This study aims to evaluate the early functional outcome...

description Aim & Background: Distal radius fractures are among the most frequently encountered bone injuries. Percutaneous pinning with a modified minimally invasive technique offers a less invasive alternative to conventional surgical interventions. This study aims to evaluate the early functional outcomes of this technique in managing distal radius fractures. Optimal management relies on precise anatomical alignment, minimal soft-tissue disruption, and prompt initiation of wrist rehabilitation. The objective is to assess the early functional outcomes of distal radius fractures treated with percutaneous pinning using a modified minimally invasive approach in adults. Materials & Methods: A prospective study was carried out on 20 adult patients presenting with distal radius fractures. All patients underwent percutaneous pinning using a modified technique and were monitored over 6 months at Jajati Kesari Medical College and Hospital, Jajpur, Odisha. Functional recovery was evaluated postoperatively using Cooney’s adaptation of the Green and O’Brien scoring system. Results: Among the 20 participants, 9 (45%) demonstrated good functional outcomes, 9 (45%) had fair outcomes, and 2 (10%) had poor outcomes based on the Green and O’Brien scoring criteria. Conclusion: The modified percutaneous fixation technique offers promising results in terms of fracture stabilization and early functional recovery. To confirm these findings, future research should be conducted with larger sample sizes.
