dc.description.abstractObjective: The aim of this study is to evaluate the earlyreduction results in conservative treatment of distal radialfractures in geriatric patients.Material and Methods: Patients aged over 60 years withdisplaced distal radius fractures who were treated withconservative treatment were included in the study. Follow-up Xraysof the patients at the 1st week were evaluated. Patients’ datawere obtained from hospital information management system.We evaluated the patient's age, sex, fracture side, the mechanismof injury, type of AO/OTA classification, loss of reduction, andtreatment methods.Results: One hundred and nineteen patients of 132 geriatricpatients with distal radius fracture were elligible for theinclusion criteria. 97.6% of patients with AO type 2R3Afracture were found to be within acceptable degrees of reductionin the 1st week of conservative treatment. Seven patients had aloss of reduction. Six had a high degree of dorsal angulation,and one had over 2mm step off. There was no significantdifference in terms of conservative treatment success betweenextra-articular fractures and partial and complete intra-articularfractures (p=0.584).Conclusion: We demonstrated that initial closed reduction andcast immobilization is an effective treatment method in themanagement of elderly patients with AO type 2R3A, 2R3B, and2R3C distal radius fractures.
