Objective To probe into the curative effect of external fixation for unstable fractures of the distal part of the radius.Method The modified AO external fixator was used in the 12 cases of unstable radial fractures.All patients were followed up for 5~8 months.According to the recovery of fracture,the shape and function of the wrist,the evaluation of the effect was done by using the Jakim system.Result All fractures were healed in 6~8 weeks.The rate of excellent and good results was 91%.Conclusion The external fixation has a good fixative effect for unstable fractures of the distal part of the radius,it can well prevent the fracture from healing with deformity and protect the function of the wrist.
