Persian Fixation - A Novel Surgical Method for Intra-articular Distal Radius Fractures.
Journal of Hand Surgery Asian-Pacific Volume 2023 April
Background: Intra-articular distal radius fracture treatment options include Kirschner wires (K-wire) fixation, external fixation and plate fixation, however, fixation of small bone fragments in distal radius fractures in a secure and anatomical manner was a challenging issue with several limitations. In this study, we present a novel surgical method that we have called the Persian Fixation for intra-articular distal radius fracture and describe a short-term clinical result. Methods: We described the surgical procedure and clinical result of 15 patients between 2019 and 2020 in whom the Persian Fixation technique was utilised. Through clinical examination and questionnaires, objective and subjective clinical results were determined. Results: At the final follow-up, the mean Quick Disabilities of the Arm, Shoulder and Hand (Quick-DASH) score for our patients was 17.6 ± 12.1, the mean WOrk-Related Questionnaire for UPper extremity disorders (WORQ-UP) score was 20.7 ± 4.4 and the mean Visual Analogue Scale (VAS) score was 27.8 ± 16.5, indicating a good to excellent clinical result. Conclusions: We recommended the Persian Fixation technique for intra-articular distal radius fractures, which is a low-cost and readily accessible procedure that provides stable fixation of a tiny bone piece. Level of Evidence: Level IV (Therapeutic).
