==Classification==
In medicine, classifications systems are devised to describe patterns of injury which will behave in predictable ways, to distinguish between conditions which have different outcomes or which need different treatments. Most wrist fracture systems have failed to accomplish any of these goals and there is no consensus about the most useful one.

Overview

There are multiple classifications available for distal radius fractures. The most common classification systems for distal radius fractures include Frykman, Fernández, Universal, and AO classification. (Marsh et al. 2007).

Classification

There are multiple classifications available for distal radius fractures. The most common classification systems for distal radius fractures include Frykman (1967), Fernández (2001), Universal (Cooney 1993), and AO classification (Marsh et al. 2007).[1]

Frykman Classification

OTA System

The Trauma Association classification is widely accepted and under constant review. (More details available here.)

  • (21-A) Extra-articular
    • (21-A2) Radius only
    • (21-A3) Radius and ulna
  • (21-B) Articular fracture involving articular surface of only one of the two bones
    • (21-B2) Radius fractured, ulna intact
    • (21-B3) Articular of one bone, extra-articular of other
  • ((21-C) Articular fracture involving articular surface of two bones
    • (21-C2) Simple of one, multifragmentary of other
    • (21-C3) Multifragmentary of both
