Evaluation and Management of Transitional Fractures of the Distal Radius
This is the largest series of transitional fractures of the distal radial physis presented to date and broadens the resources available for the evaluation and management of these rare injuries. This series additionally demonstrates fracture patterns similar to the Tillaux fracture of the distal tibia, with an isolated SH-III fracture component in the coronal plane, and demonstrates successful treatment with CRPP, both of which can help guide diagnosis and treatment in the future.
