Relationship Between the Predictive Assessment of Radiographic Measurements of the Distal Radius and Functional Outcomes

Key Points

• The aim is to identify which radiographic measurements can effectively predict functional recovery in distal radius fractures.
• Analyzed radiographic measurements of the distal radius
• Focused on extraarticular and intraarticular fractures
• Compared specific measures related to recovery outcomes
• Complete radiographic restoration does not guarantee function
• Radial height and palmar tilt are key predictors in extraarticular fractures
• CARD is a significant predictor in intraarticular fractures
