Having a rough morning. Distal radius fracture question - Terri


Posted: Dec 22, 2009

We discussed alternative methods of treatment, other than the surgical option, which include but are not limited to, casting s/l "in situ/inside chew", closed reduction, without percutaneous or external fixation. 

LOL, that is the best I can hear!  Any help would be greatly appreciated. 

 

you got it - in situ is correct....nm - elaine
