Malunions of the distal radius are common. Although the best treatment is prevention, symptomatic malunions can be salvaged through more careful fracture management, by corrective osteotomy or, in the presence of post-traumatic arthritis, radiocarpal arthrodesis. Dynamic midcarpal instability following radius malunion does not respond as well to ligament repair or intercarpal arthrodesis as it does to osteotomy of the radius and correction of the malunion deformity.
桡骨远端畸形愈合很常见。尽管最佳治疗方法是预防，但有症状的畸形愈合可通过更精细的骨折处理、截骨矫正术或在创伤后关节炎存在的情况下进行桡腕关节融合术来挽救。桡骨畸形愈合后出现的动态腕中关节不稳，韧带修复或腕骨间融合术的效果不如桡骨截骨术和畸形愈合矫正术。
