Salvatore Di Giacinto, Giuseppe Pica, Alessandro Stasi, L. Scialpi et al.

Plate fixation (ORIF) resulted in fewer complications than K-wire fixation (IMNK) for paediatric distal radius/forearm fractures, though both methods showed comparable functional, pain, and return-to-activity outcomes after three months.
