title: [Treatment of distal radius fracture--diagnosis and therapy of local concomitant injuries].
abstract: In a high percentage the accompanying local injuries in Colles' type fractures of the distal radius are related to lesions of the triangular fibrocartilage complex (TFCC) and the distal radioulnar joint (DRUG). Frequency and importance of these local injuries concerning the long-term result after distal radius fractures are described and diagnostic and therapeutical proceedings are presented.
