Abstract: Distal radius fractures are characterized by varying degrees of comminution with volar and dorsal displacement. Conventional methods of treatment for this fracture has resulted in unsatisfactory anatomical and functional results with varying degrees of deformity and disability. Of these Percutaneous wire fixation has gained much importance. The purpose of our study was to evaluate our early experience using Kapandji’s technique.
