Current Management and Volar Locking Plate Fixation with Bone Cement Augmentation for Elderly Distal Radius Fractures—An Updated Narrative Review
Distal radius fractures (DRFs) are the most common among all kinds of fractures with an increase in incidence due to the rapidly expanded size of the elderly population in the past decades. Both non-surgical and surgical treatments can be applied for this common injury. Nowadays, more and more elder...
