What this Trial Is About
This comparative study aims to evaluate the clinical and radiological outcomes of cannulated screw fixation versus K-wire fixation in the treatment of distal radius fractures. Adult patients with distal radius fractures will be allocated to either cannulated screw fixation or K-wire fixation. The primary outcome measure will be functional outcome assessed using the DASH score, with secondary outcomes including radiographic parameters and complication rates.
