A rational approach for the recognition and treatment of XXXX .

@entity1 @entity3986 @entity174 @entity7719
The approach to @entity7719 , as recommended in this article, is derived from understanding the mechanism of injury. Fractures that are inherently unstable can be recognized by observing the depth of comminution presented on the lateral postreduction radiography. These unstable @entity174 demand a more vigorous approach to achieve the result our @entity1 have come to demand. External fixators, percutaneous pinning, and bone grafting have all been successfully used to achieve a satisfactory result. Fortunately, the majority of Colles' @entity174 are stable and can be treated by accurate closed reduction and immobilization in plaster. If the @entity174 results in loss of containment of the carpus, a chronically weak and sometimes painful wrist will result. This event can be remedied surgically. The final emphasis I would like to impart is the prevention of sympathetic reflex @entity3986 . Early involvement by the @entity1 in their rehabilitation process is essential in minimizing this condition. Understanding and application of the principles I have presented will result in @entity1 pleased with the result of their care and, consequently, with their physician.
