[Results of percutaneous wiring, using Kirschner wires, in the management of distal radius fractures susceptible to re-dislocation].
During 6 years (1980-1985) 1876 patients with fractures of the distal end of the radius were treated in the County Hospital-Polyclinic Unit "Kaposi Mór". In this paper 302 cases, reduced and pinned with K-wire are discussed. 247 could be controlled 5-10 years after the injury. On the basis of the results in unstable fractures of the distal radial end, susceptibles for redislocation closed pinning with K-wire, following correct reduction is suggested.
