Dorsal bridge plating for distal radius factures
Contributors:Katherine Faust and Jacob Brubacher
Internal distraction, or bridge plating, of distal radius fractures is a valuable tool for highly comminuted and unstable fracture patterns. Additionally, this technique is valuable for those fractures that extend into the metadiaphysis or for multiply injured patients requiring stable fixation for mobilization. Bridge plating allows for stable fixation in poor bone quality and early use of the injured extremity.

Collagenase Injection of the Dupuytren Hand
Contributor: John Zhao
Collagenase clostridium histolyticum (CCH) injections were FDA approved in 2010 for use in Dupuytren’s contracture. Interest among surgeons in this office-based treatment has rapidly increased in the past 5 years due to its shorter recovery time and limited complication rates compared to open fasciectomy.
