Abstract:
BACKGROUND: Although the Incidence of irritation, abrasion and rupture of the extensor tendon at the dorsal carpal side of the distal radius caused by internal fixation with volar locking plate is not high, these complications seriously affect the quality of life of the patients. OBJECTIVE: To summarize the latest progress of intraoperative fluoroscopy in the treatment of distal radius fracture with volar locking plate. METHODS: Using the English key words "volar locking plate, distal radius fracture, radiological method", the authors retrieved PubMed for 160 relevant studies published from 2000 to 2019. Using the Chinese key words "fluoroscopy, distal radius fracture, volar plate", the authors searched Wanfang database for 7 relevant studies published from 2000 to 2019. This paper reviewed the literature of intraoperative fluoroscopy in the treatment of distal radius fracture with volar locking plate. RESULTS AND CONCLUSION: (1) There are various methods of intraoperative fluoroscopy during volar locking plate fixation for distal radius fracture, such as standard anteroposterior view, lateral view, carpal canal method, skyline, dorsal tangent view and radial groove view. (2) The above common methods still have some limitations in detecting the problem of posterior screw penetration in volar locking plate fixation. The complications such as irritation, abrasion and rupture of the extensor tendon of the dorsal wrist still occur, and the problems brought by the secondary and multiple operations to the patients' life and economy should also be paid attention to. (3) More appropriate intraoperative detection methods should be found, in order to reduce the incidence of complications caused by the internal fixation of the posterior screw with the locking plate on the palmar side.
