Fig. 1

68-year-old woman with unstable distal radius fracture was treated by open reduction and internal fixation with 2.4 mm locking compression plate.

(A) Preoperative radiographs show ustable distal radius fracture with dorsal comminution (AO type A2).

(B) Immediate postoperative radiographs show successful reduction and fixation.

(C) Radiographs at 12 months postoperatively show no significant loss of reduction.
