Colles' Fracture

Colles Fracture

We conclude that those individuals presenting with Colles' fracture may also have hearing loss and conversely, patients presenting with a conductive hearing loss may be at risk of developing the further symptoms of osteoporosis. [ncbi.nlm.nih.gov]

[…] the patient presents with a deformity in the wrist. [boneandspine.com]

  • Internal Bleeding

    Talk with your health care provider before using these medicines if you have heart disease, high blood pressure, kidney disease, or have had stomach ulcers or internal bleeding in the past. DO NOT take more than the amount recommended on the bottle. [mountsinai.org]

  • Laboratory Technician

    The patient will then interact with patient care nursing staff, radiology technicians for imaging, possibly laboratory technicians if lab work is needed, and emergency physicians, or another physician in the office they have visited for treatment. [ncbi.nlm.nih.gov]

  • Acute Low Back Pain

    A 59 years old post-menopausal woman presented with a history of acute low-back-pain. She had menopause for 12 years. She gave history of colles' fracture at about two years back. Her mother died as consequences of femoral neck fracture. [ncbi.nlm.nih.gov]

  • Mononeuropathy

    Mononeuropathies in the proximal forearm have not been reported. We present two patients with Colles' fracture with proximal forearm neuropathies. [ncbi.nlm.nih.gov]

  • Abnormal Reflex

    The most widely accepted theory proposes the existence of an abnormal reflex arc within the sympathetic nervous system. [slideshare.net]

Skills Assess radiographs and describe the pattern of injury Recognize fractures associated with osteoporosis and initiate a workup for it. Be able to counsel a patient on lifestyle modifications that prevent osteoporosis. [orthopaedicsone.com]

[…] with a Colles fracture, he should be investigated for osteoporosis because his risk of a hip fracture is also elevated. [10] An increasing awareness of osteoporosis has led to these injuries being termed fragility fractures, with the implication that a workup [physio-pedia.com]

An increasing awareness of osteoporosis has led to these injuries being termed fragility fractures, the implication being that a workup for osteoporosis should be a standard part of treatment. [emedicine.medscape.com]

CONCLUSIONS: Brazilian orthopedists have concordant opinions regarding conservative treatment methods and the use of bone grafts. There were conflicting opinions regarding surgical treatment methods, classification types and complications. [ncbi.nlm.nih.gov]

CONCLUSIONS: Bone loss during the course of treatment will have a direct effect upon the prognosis, so different treatment should be proposed for different patterns of fractures. Active exercise should be made to improve the recovery of bone mass. [ncbi.nlm.nih.gov]

The earlier a diagnosis is made and treatment is commenced the better the prognosis. Aetiology: The aetiology is uncertain. The most widely accepted theory proposes the existence of an abnormal reflex arc within the sympathetic nervous system. [slideshare.net]

At one extreme a stable, undisplaced extra-articular fracture has an excellent prognosis. At the other an unstable, displaced intra-articular fracture is difficult to treat and has a poor prognosis. [radiologyassistant.nl]

Compartment syndromes may be important as etiologic and complicating factors. Hyperbaric oxygen may have therapeutic value but its use has not improved on survival rates achieved during World War II with surgery and antibiotics alone. [ncbi.nlm.nih.gov]

Although Colles Fractures are a heterogeneous group of injuries, the etiology is usually the same: a fall on an outstretched arm. The position of the hand is important in determining the type of fracture that results. [handandwristinstitute.com]

Pathophysiology Distal radius fractures are most commonly caused by a fall on an outstretched hand (FOOSH). Due to osteoporosis, the risk of these fractures increases with age (termed ‘fragility fractures’). [teachmesurgery.com]

Osteoporosis associated with aging increase the risk of these fractures in elderly individuals, and also increases risk in women, who are more commonly affected with osteoporosis.[4] Pathophysiology The most common cause of Colles fractures is trauma. [ncbi.nlm.nih.gov]

In order to prevent the occurrence of radius fractures and their adverse outcomes, understanding the effect of both extrinsic and intrinsic contributors to fracture risk is essential. [ncbi.nlm.nih.gov]
