Estrogen Replacement Therapy and Postoperative Complications After Distal Radius Open Reduction and Internal Fixation
The current study suggests that patients on preoperative ERT had a slightly increased risk of malunion/nonunion at 2 years and 5 years after DR-ORIF. We did not find associations between increases in the risk of any other major or minor complications and the cohort of patients on preoperative ERT within 5 years postoperatively.
