Area of Focus: Hand & Wrist and Trauma

Learn to evaluate the distal radius using arthroscopic and radiographic assessment, including carpal facet horizon, 10 degree lateral, and "teardrop angle." Define indications and contraindications for volar and dorsal plating techniques for distal radius fractures. Identify the treatment options of a distal radius or carpus using either limited incision or extensile exposure techniques, as well as special considerations for pediatric patients.

Successful completion of this independent study program provides you with the knowledge to:

  • Describe principles, techniques, and rules of thumb for evaluating the distal radius using radiographic images including carpal facet horizon, 10 degree lateral, and "teardrop angle."
  • Identify the mechanism of injury and fragmentation pattern of a distal radius fracture via radiographic and arthroscopic assessment.
  • Define indications and contraindications for volar and dorsal plating techniques for distal radius fractures.
  • Recognize the relevance and function of the intercarpal ligaments, including the radioscaphocapitate, the long and short radiolunate, the scapholunate, and lunotriquetral ligaments.
  • Identify the options for treatment of a distal radius or carpus using either limited incision or extensile exposure techniques.
  • Assess the options for treatment of select complications of wrist injuries, including special considerations for pediatric patients.


    In-depth coverage includes:

  • Percutaneous fixation
  • ORIF exposures
  • Fragment-specific fixation
  • Volar rim and Bartons fractures
  • Dorsally displaced fractures
  • Pediatric fractures
  • Ulnar column stability
  • Associated injuries of the carpus
