The challenge of the surgical treatment of paediatric distal radius/ forearm fracture: K wire vs plate fixation - outcomes assessment.

One challenge facing the physician is the choice of surgical technique and fixation method, which will be influenced by individual experience and preference. The question of distal radius or forearm fractures in adolescents would be best answered with a prospective randomized study.
