During the past 12 weeks at my site, I had the opportunity to work with many patients who had experienced distal radius fractures and were coming to therapy post surgery. This article discusses patients pain level, grip strength, pinch strength, and ROM following therapy 12 months out. Patients almost reached the same ROM in the treated hand that they did in the uninjured hand. Also, patients had increased grip and pinch strength. The interesting finding was that at 12 months, patients reported decreased pain, however between the 12-24 months there was increased pain at rest and during activity. The article discusses multiple patients having pain due to a volar locking plate as fixation. However, patients who did have the plate removed had significant pain and were not as satisfied with the result either at 12 to 24 months following surgery. I found this interesting because most of my patient's who would come to me for therapy would continue to complain about pain and decreased ROM throughout our sessions. Educating patients on their limitations due to the plate and learning more about how to help individuals with a plate in the volar aspect of the arm is key to helping them

We now present the case of a 75-year-old right hand dominant woman who fell down the stairs in her home and impacted her left hand in extension against a wall. She was found to have a left intra-articular distal radius fracture with greater than 25 degrees of dorsal tilt.

Proximal radial nerve injuries are a common orthopedic problem[ 1- 5]. The radial nerve is the most commonly injured nerve following orthopedic trauma[ 6, 7] and is highly correlated with open humeral shaft fractures[ 5]. Although radial nerve injuries can occur anywhere along the course of the nerve the clinical picture is similar.
