The influence of distal screw length on the primary stability of volar plate osteosynthesis—a biomechanical study

BACKGROUND: Extensor tendon irritation is one of the most common complications following volar locking plate osteosynthesis (VLPO) for distal radius fractures. It is most likely caused by distal screws protruding the dorsal cortex. Shorter distal screws could avoid this, yet the influence of distal...
