Kong L, Zhai Y, Zhang Z, et al. - This study was sought to report the incidence of radiocarpal joint stiffness (RJS) and to ascertain potential risk factors that may be correlated with it. Researchers retrospectively enrolled a series of patients who suffered from distal radius fractures and had undergone volar plate fixation. They obtained patients’ basic data, radiographic data, and postoperative data. They noted the incidence of RJS during follow-up and determined factors associated with it by using both univariate analyses and multivariate logistic regression. This analysis enrolled a sum of 119 patients. This study's findings demonstrate that individuals with intra-articular fracture, pre-operative severe swelling, post-operative unsatisfied volar tile, and improper rehabilitation exercise were factors correlated with the incidence of wrist stiffness. For relevant patients, preoperative risk notification and postoperative precautions are necessary.
