Article Synopsis
- The study investigates pain management techniques for distal radius fractures, comparing hematoma block (HB) and hematoma with median nerve block (MHB) methods.
- Pain was measured using the Visual Analogical Scale (VAS) at three different times: before, during, and after the injection.
- Results showed MHB significantly reduced pain during the procedure compared to HB alone, particularly noting that finger traction was the main source of pain in the HB group.
We report a 94-year-old patient with a fractured radius that was being managed conservatively. At 2 months, an abscess was observed overlying the fracture site. An MRI scan was done and samples obtained for microbiological and pathological analyses.

Choosing between conservative or surgical treatment is a controversial topic in the literature, as is the functional impact. The main aim of our study was to analyse whether patient comorbidities should influence the final therapeutic decision for these fractures.
