title: [Treatment of unstable fractures of distal metaepiphysis of radial bone in elderly patients].
abstract: Features of supraosteal osteosynthesis of the distal metaepiphysis of radial bone in elderly patients, permitting stable fixation of bone fragments in conditions of osteoporosis, were highlighted. Results of treatment of 35 patients, aged 60-78 years were analyzed. The proper plate positioning and conduction of the distal screw line provides the stable fixation, eases early rehabilitation and facilitates good functional results.
