Wrist Fracture Treatment


A fracture is a partial or complete break in the bone. There are many different types of fractures. Bone fractures are often caused by falls, trauma, or as a result of a direct blow or kick to the body. Overuse or repetitive motions can cause stress fractures.

Wrist Reconstruction Procedures

Reasons for Fractures


  • Displaced fracture: The bone fragments have significantly shifted out of their normal alignment.
  • Open fracture: The bone breaks through the skin, increasing infection risk.
  • Unstable fracture:The fracture fragments are likely to move, preventing proper healing.
  • Fractures involving the joint surface:These require accurate alignment to restore joint function.
  • Failure of conservative treatment: When casting or splinting fails to achieve proper healing or reduce pain.
