Lets Agree to Disagree on Operative vs Nonoperative Treatment for Distal Radius Fractures in the Elderly (LADON Radius)

Operative treatment can consist of open reduction and volar and/or dorsal plating or closed reduction and fixation with K-wires, external fixateur.

Non-operative treatment will consist of immobilization in a below the elbow cast for 4-6 weeks with or without prior closed reduction.
