Forty cases of unstable fracture of the distal end of the radius were treated by distraction and fixation using a Hoffmann external fixator. Most of the fractures were both epiphyseal and metaphyseal. They were followed up for between 6 months and 4 years. The anatomical and functional results were generally good; the range of movement of the wrist and its strength were satisfactory. However 4 instances of secondary collapse of the bone could probably have been avoided by a cancellous bone graft. Two severe algodystrophies were observed.
40例桡骨远端不稳定骨折采用Hoffmann外固定器进行牵引固定治疗。大多数骨折累及骨骺和干骺端。随访时间为6个月至4年。解剖和功能结果总体良好；腕关节活动范围及力量令人满意。然而，4例骨继发性塌陷可能通过松质骨植骨得以避免。观察到2例严重的骨营养不良。
