Radiological Parameters for Predicting the Risk of Flexor Tendon Rupture after Volar Plate Fixation for Distal Radius Fracture
Our findings underscore the importance of PCLD, SCA, and RVLD as significant risk factors for flexor tendon rupture. Accurate plate positioning, achieving appropriate anatomical reduction, and vigilant monitoring for signs of plate irritation in high-risk patients may help prevent flexor tendon rupture.
