Effectiveness of Delayed Surgical Treatment for Distal Radius Fractures With Loss of Reduction

This study investigated the effectiveness of volar plate surgery in patients with distal radius fractures (DRFs) initially treated nonsurgically but later experiencing reduction loss during follow-ups. Specifically, it assessed the impact of early surgery (E) (<3 weeks) versus delayed surgery (D) (3-6 weeks) on wrist function in surgically treated DRFs.
