Résumé
Objective: To note the good results with combined percutaneous pinning of these lesions and to analyze literature related to this topic. Material and method: We present two cases with complex and intra-articular distal radius fractures, treated by percutaneous pinning with Kirschner wires. Anual follow-up. Radiological and functional outcomes. Results: Quite good evolution, one with minimal mobility limitation and both with algodystrophy with total recovery. Both returned to previous works. Conclusion: If the bone has a good quality, this orthopedic fixation device is useful because it is simply, fast and a low-cost method. One surgeon can do it alone. On the other hand, it needs an exhaustive postoperative follow-up and a cast is imperative during a variable period.
