RESUMEN
Antecedentes: La clasificación AO tiene valor pronóstico, ayudando a los médicos en planificar el manejo de fracturas. Los datos radiológicos y el cuestionario DASH se usan para evaluar el resultado de las fracturas radiales. En los últimos diez años se ha observado una tendencia hacia el tratamiento abierto, opuesto a los métodos de tratamiento cerrados o percutáneos.
Métodos: Estudio descriptivo que evalúa el resultado funcional con seguimiento de 6 meses a 1 año con el cuestionario DASH, correlacionando los resultados con el tratamiento empleado, tipo de fractura, clasificaciones AO y Frykman y los parámetros radiológicos iniciales. Se registraron estabilidad de la fractura y tratamiento de elección. Los pacientes se agruparon de acuerdo al tratamiento empleado.
Resultados: Se tomó un resultado DASH ≤ 20 como bueno, y › 20 como pobre. A los 6 a 12 meses de seguimiento se aplicaron los cuestionarios, el resultado promedio fue 14.46. No se encontró diferencia estadística entre un resultado bueno o malo de acuerdo al tipo de tratamiento. Se encontró correlación entre el tipo de fractura y los parámetros radiológicos con el resultado funcional.
Conclusiones: Sin importar el tratamiento de elección para las fracturas del radio distal, el objetivo más importante es restaurar las mediciones radiológicas normales para mejorar el resultado funcional y reducir las complicaciones. No se encontró diferencia en el resultado funcional entre las opciones terapéuticas empleadas para las fracturas del radio distal. La clasificación AO es válida como indicador pronóstico y útil para tomar decisiones terapéuticas.
