Background- Vast majority of fractures of distal radius are articular injuries that result in disruption of both radiocarpal and radioulnar joints. This article presents a percutaneous pinning technique.The purpose of this study is Prospective study on outcome of distal radial fractures treated with closed reduction and percutaneous pinning. Material and method - after ethical approval from IEC, 34 patients with AO type C radius fractures were treated by percutaneous pinning (K-wire) between 27th Aug 2021 to 31st October 2022. The follow up studies include clinical and radiographic examinations. Results- All 34 patients were assessed by follow ups using modified mayo score. The majority of study participants, or 55.90% (n=19), received good scores, while 29.40% (n=10) received exceptional scores. Only 2.90% (n=1) of respondents received a low score. Conclusion- Primary treatment of distal radius fractures is necessary to improve function and prevent complications from immobility. Closed reduction and percutaneous fixation with Kirschner wires alone are effective for distal radius complete intra-articular fractures. Closed reduction and percutaneous pinning patients with distal radius fractures had good range of motion, normal Mayo wrist scores, and no radiographic changes between fracture fixation and fracture healing.
