Comparison And Analysis of Treatment Strategies for Radius Fractures: Internal Fixation Surgery Versus External Plaster Fixation Treatment

Abstract

One of the most frequent forms of fractures is the radius fracture. This kind of fracture would have a significant negative impact on people's lives. There has been ongoing debate regarding the treatment options for radius fractures. This article conducts a comparative analysis of two treatment approaches for radius fractures: internal fixation surgery and non-surgical external plaster fixation treatment. This article provides a comprehensive elucidation and analysis of the principles, actual treatment outcomes, and various factors associated with these two treatment approaches. It separately outlines the treatment principles and real-world results for each of the two treatment methods, concluding with a summary and comparison. When viewed from a singular perspective, both treatment approaches demonstrate reasonable and excellent treatment outcomes. However, when these two approaches are compared, this article finds that surgical internal fixation typically outperforms non-surgical cast external fixation in a broader range of evaluations.
