Barton's Fracture. This is an intra-articular fracture of the distal radius with associated dislocation of the radio-carpal joint. A Barton fracture can be described as volar (more common) or dorsal (less common), depending on whether the volar or dorsal rim of the radius is involved. Figure 2 - Schematic demonstrating difference in.

Smith's Fracture is a fracture of the distal end of the radius caused by a fall on the back of the hand (flexed), resulting in a volar displacement of the fractured fragment. It is also known as a reverse Colles fracture.

A Smith fracture is an eponym for an extraarticular fracture of the distal radius featuring a volar displacement or angulation of the distal fragment. It is also known as a reverse Colles fracture since the more common Colles fracture features a dorsal displacement of the distal fracture fragment.

Smith Fracture (Distal Radius Fracture) Definition & Treatment
This injury produces what is known as a "garden-spade" deformity on X-Ray. Colles' and Smith's fractures often occur in isolation but can have other associated injuries. Isolated radial shaft fractures can occur at any location along the bone. The mechanism of injury for isolated distal third radial shaft fractures is similar to Smith.

OBJECTIVE. Fractures of the distal radius are common and frequently encountered by the radiologist. We review the epidemiology, classification, as well as the concept of instabil-ity. Salient qualitative and quantitative features of the distal radius fracture identifiable on the routine radiography series are highlighted.

Smith fractures usually occur in one of two ways: a fall onto a flexed wrist direct blow to the back of the wrist Radiographic features The fracture can be split into three types, although in practice a description suffices 1,2: type I extra-articular transverse fracture through the distal radius most common: ~85% type II

Overview X-ray of a Smith fracture of the wrist. What is a Smith fracture? A Smith fracture is a specific type of broken wrist. It's caused by falling or experiencing another trauma while your wrist is bent or flexed. There are lots of different bone fractures, and it's easy for the different names to sound confusing.

Forearm fracture/dislocation. The radius and ulna form an anatomical unit, joined throughout their length by an interosseous ligament and stabilised at the elbow and wrist, thus forming a ring. If there is a fracture of the shaft of one of these bones with visible shortening, there will likely be dislocation at the wrist or elbow of the other.

Smith Fracture
A Smith's Fracture, sometimes also known as a Goyrand Fracture is a distal radial fracture with volar angulation of the distal fracture fragments. It usually results from a fall onto a flexed wrist or from a direct blow to the dorsal forearm. Types of Smith's Fracture
Pin on A & G MCQ
There are three types of Smith's fractures. Type I is the most common with a transverse break outside the wrist joint. Type II, also called a reverse Barton fracture, is an intra-articular fracture, or a fracture that occurs on the articular surface (i.e., joint surface) of the radial-ulnar joint.
