Abstract

1. A five-year follow-up of forty-one patients who sustained Colles's fractures was made. 2. The objective results were not so satisfactory as the subjective, but overall there seems to be no reason to depart from the present methods of managing these injuries by manipulation and immobilisation in plaster. 3. Colles's belief that in time the patient would regain full painless function irrespective of how the fracture was treated seems to be vindicated.
