Abstract | Open reduction and internal fixation of distal radius fractures is one of the most common operations for orthopaedic surgeons. A vital step of the operation is restoring radial height, which can be challenging if the surgeon is operating alone. To address this, we present a novel surgical technique called the distal radius mini distractor. The technique utilizes a compression / distraction device in tandem with a volar locking plate to aid in the reduction of impacted distal radius fractures. The written technique guide is presented alongside intra-operative surgical pictures and fluoroscopy. The objective of this article is to introduce the mini distractor technique, which can be of particular use for the surgeon operating without assistance. |
