introduction session 3 – More on the wrist joint

CRPS, does it exist?

Opening & welcome Session 1 – Wrist and DRUJ

Imaging of the Scaphoid

DRUJ pathomechanics

DRUJ - definition and measurement of instability

Proprioception of the hand and arm.

Open reduction and plate fixation of distal radius fractures remains an important adjunct in treatment of intra-articular distal radius fractures. Recognition of fracture pattern is essential for correct reconstruction of articular surface of distal radius fractures. Multiplanar reconstruction computed tomography imaging will provide useful information to demonstrate what corners of the radiocarpal and distal radio-ulnar joint are involved in the fracture and the appropriate approach, reduction and fixation of all involved fragments. These principles will be demonstrated by showing different clinical cases with focus on approach and fixation of the intra-articular distal radius fracture.
