Abstract: Objective To investigate the clinical effect of volar locking plate for treatment of distal radius fractures. Methods There were 68 cases of patients with distal radius fracture in the study.32 cases in the treatment group were treated with the operation of open reduction and volar locking plate fixation. 36 cases in the control group were treated with the manipulative reduction and plaster fixation. The radiale height ， volar tilt ， radiale inclination were compared ， the Cooney scores were used to assess wrist joint function at 6th and 12th months after the treatments. Results The recovery of radiale height， volar tilt， radiale inclination in treatment group were better than those in control group （ P < 0. 05）， The Cooney score of the treatment group at 6th and 12th months were higher than those of the control group（ P < 0. 05）， There were statistical significance between two groups. Conclusion The wrist joint function recovery of patients treated by volar locking plate fixation is better than that of manual reduction and plaster fixation. This method has satisfactory curative effect.
