Recommendations for Early Surgical Intervention in Adolescents With Salter-Harris II (SH2) Distal Radius Fractures
Decision for acute surgical intervention of SH2 distal radius fractures is done most often with persistent deformity of sagittal translation ≥35% in patients ≥12 years following closed reduction at the time of injury. Additional parameters are identified as associated with the decision for acute surgery and progression to symptomatic malunion.
