Abstract:
Objective To compare and analyze the epidemiological features of Colles fractures between Eastern and Western China from 2010 to 2011.Methods The data of patients with Colles fracture treated from January 2010 to December 2011 in 63 hospitals in Eastern and Western China were analyzed retrospectively.The patients from the 35 hospitals in Eastern China were defined as group A and those from the 28 hospitals in Western China as group B.The 2 groups were analyzed and compared in terms of gender,age and laterality.Results A total of 9,255 Colles fractures were collected.The total male/female ratio was 0.82:1.Their ages ranged from 1 to 110 years,with a median age of 51 years.The Colles fractures predominated in an age range from 51 to 60 years.There were 5,006 left sides and 4,249 right sides.There were 5,639 Colles fractures in group A,accounted for 2.55% of the total body fractures and 22.09% of the distal ultra-radius fractures.There were 3,616 Colles fractures in group B,accounted for 3.98% of the total body fractures and 37.55% of the distal ultra-radius fractures.The male/female ratio was 0.72:1 in group A and 0.99:1 in group B.The median age was 54 years (from 1 to 110 years) for group A and 45 years (from 1 to 99 years) for group B.There were significant differences between the 2 groups in all the above items (P <0.05).The largest proportion of age group was from 51 to 60 years and the smallest proportion of age group was ≥81 years for both groups.The proportions of age groups from 1 to 10 years,from 51 to 60 years,from 61 to 70 years,from 71 to 80 years and ≥81 years in group A were larger than in group B while those from 11 to 20 years,from 21 to 30 years,from 31 to 40 years and from 41 to 50 years in group A were smaller than in group B.There were significant differences between the 2 groups in all the proportions of age group (P <0.05).The Colles fractures predominated on the left side in both groups,showing no significant difference between the 2 groups (P > 0.05).Conclusions The Colles fractures from 2010 to 2011 predominated in the elderly and female patients in China.The proportions of Colles fractures in all body fractures and distal ultra-radius fractures in Eastern China were lower than those in Western China.There were significant differences in gender and age proportions between the 2 areas.Eastern China had a larger proportion of female patients and a higher median age than Western China.
