8 paź 2023 · Colles fractures are very common extra-articular fractures of the distal radius that occur as the result of a fall onto an outstretched hand. They consist of a fracture of the distal radial metaphyseal region with dorsal angulation and impaction, but without the involvement of the articular surface.
Age: 13 years. Gender: Male. x-ray. Frontal. Lateral. There is a minimally displaced fracture through the distal left radial metaphyseal region with dorsal angulation of the distal fracture component, keeping with a Colles fracture. Accompanied ulnar styloid fracture is also evident.
31 lip 2023 · The Colles fracture is defined as a distal radius fracture with dorsal comminution, dorsal angulation, dorsal displacement, radial shortening, and an associated ulnar styloid fracture. The term Colles fracture is often used eponymously for distal fractures with dorsal angulation.
30 paź 2023 · Colles fracture typically occurs when a person falls and uses a pronated hand and outstretched arm to try to break the fall. In this position, the wrist is usually at 40-90° in dorsiflexion. The pressure from the fall over-extends the hand and breaks the radius just above the wrist.
Une fracture de Colles est une fracture du radius distal nommée d'après Abraham Colles, qui l'a décrite pour la première fois en 1814. Le mécanisme de la blessure est une chute sur la main tendue (blessure FOOSH) et elle est fréquemment observée dans les services d'urgence.
The eponym “Colles’ fracture” has been used to describe all distal radius fractures, though that name refers specifically to fractures that are angulated dorsally. Figure 1: Colles fracture. (From radiopaedia.org http://bit.ly/1P0PjGJ) Structure and Function. The distal radius forms the proximal side of the wrist joint.
31 lip 2023 · The term Colles fracture is often used eponymously for distal fractures with dorsal angulation. These distal radius fractures are often caused by falling on an outstretched hand with the wrist in dorsiflexion, causing tension on the volar aspect of the wrist, causing the fracture to extend dorsally.
