Study summary

Minimally invasive surgery avoids the tissue damage and impairment of physiological function caused by open surgery because of its precise location techniques and can effectively promote the early recovery of wrist function. Under conditions of no cutting of fracture fragments, no blood supply compromise in the fracture fragments

Read the detailed description

Distal radial fracture is common fracture and internal fixation needed in many cases so we use minimally invasive fixation in this study to minimize open surgery compilations
