This fracture was preoperatively the most dorsally angulated fracture in the study (42.7°). In the other patient, radial angulation was the most pronounced displacement. The patient reported increasing pain and disability, and underwent osteotomy, reduction and dorsal plate fixation 10 months after the fracture. This fracture was preoperatively the most radially angulated fracture in the study (−0.5°). Both these fractures fulfilled the inclusion criteria and were primarily successfully reduced. The third patient felt instability in the fracture area immediately after removal of the plaster cast at 10 days. The patient insisted on getting a new plaster cast and was treated with a new cast in situ for another 3 weeks.
