Comparing the Outcomes of Cast Immobilization with and Without K-Wire Fixation for Displaced Distal Radius Fractures in the Pediatric Population: A Systematic Review and Meta-Analysis
Sign Up to like & getrecommendations! Published in 2025 at "Medicina"
DOI: 10.3390/medicina61050852
Abstract: Background and Objectives: Distal radius fractures are among the most common pediatric injuries, accounting for approximately 25% of all fractures in children. Displaced fractures are prone to re-displacement, necessitating additional interventions. K-wire fixation is effective… read more here.
