Distal Radial Fracture Treatment: What You Get May Depend on Your Age and Address
Journal of Bone and Joint Surgery, 06/02/09
Fanuele J et al. - There is wide variation in the rate of distal radial fractures across sex, age, race, and geographic region in the United States. There is also significant variation in the treatment of these fractures, driven mainly by age and region. While white individuals had more than twice as many fractures as did non-white individuals, there did not appear to be significant racial variation in the treatment of this injury.
