Distal radius fracture is a common trauma in the elderly because of the high frequency of osteoporosis in this age group. Hand and forearm fractures account for a significant portion of emergency department visits, with distal radius fractures comprising approximately 44 percent of those cases. These injuries typically affect two populations: active youth sustaining high-energy falls and seniors with osteoporotic bones sustaining low-energy falls.
