Abstract：Objective To evaluate the efficacy of percutaneous minimal invasive Henry approach in treat -ment of distal radial fractures with palmar locking plate.Methods Between Aug.2011 and Jan.2015,40 cases of distal radial fractures who were treated by percutaneous minimal invasive Henry approach with palmar locking plate were included in this study.There were 25 males and 15 females,with an average age of 65.5 years(25-70 years). There were 30 cases of falling injury and 10 cases of traffic accident injury.The operation time,blood loss,fracture healing time,complications,active range of motion of wrist joint and DASH score were assessed.Results Patients were followed up for 12 to 18 months(mean,16.5 months).The average operation time was(55.6 ±6.5)min,the average intra-operative blood loss was(35.8 ±4.5)mL,and the average fracture healing time was(7.5 ±2.5) months.The average motion of wrist joint indicated flexion of(73.2 ±6.4)°,extension of(64.5 ±4.2)°,pronation of(81.6 ±3.5)°,and supination of(76.5 ±5.5)°.The average DASH score was(5.6 ±2.4).There were no complications such as fixation loosening or breakage.Conclusion Percutaneous minimal invasive Henry approach in treatment of distal radial fractures with palmar locking plate has advantages such as small trauma,little bleeding, short operation time,and fast recovery.
