Repair vs Non-repair of the Pronator Quadratus Muscle in Distal Radius Fractures. RCT.

Radius Fractures Clinical Trial

Official title:
Clinical Outcome After Repair of the Pronator Quadratus Muscle in Volar Locked Plating of the Distal Radius. A Randomised Clinical Trial.

Clinical Trial Summary

The purpose of this study is to determine the functional outcome of repairing the pronator quadratus (PQ) muscle in subjects operated for a distal radius fracture (DRF) with volar locked plating.

Clinical Trial Description

Fractures of the distal radius are common in the elderly. A frequent treatment of an unstable DRF is surgery with volar plating using the modified Henry's approach. In some cases the fracture mechanism has injured the PQ muscle and subsequent reconstruction of the muscle can be difficult. When the PQ muscle is not injured the plate is fixated through a radial and distal release of the PQ muscle and resuture/repair of the PQ muscle is attempted by most surgeons.

The clinical relevance of repairing the PQ muscle has not previously been investigated in a randomised clinical trial and we hypothesise that there is no difference in functional outcome whether the PQ muscle is repaired or not. ;
