Abstract

Fifty-year-old Wilma Jones tripped on the step as she was returning to her apartment and knew immediately—when she put out her hand to break her fall—that she had severely injured her wrist. An X ray confirmed a fracture of the distal radius, Colles’ type, and she was treated by a closed manipulation and casting in the emergency room. Why did Wilma’s radius break with such a minor fall?
