Figure 3 Distal forearm fracture treatment without bone defect augmentation demonstrates the bone healing process. (A) Plate osteosynthesis stabilized a fracture gap without bony filling. (B) Increased bone density in the first follow-up examination of the distal radius fracture. (C) In evaluating the bone healing process, fewer sharp bone edges were noticed. (D) Optimal interosseus integration demonstrate a slightly unclear edge and a fracture gap with bone density.
