Article Synopsis
- The case report discusses an 80-year-old woman who experienced a refracture of her distal radius after a fall, leading to an unusual situation of bending in her titanium volar plate used for previous surgery.
- Previously healed two and a half years ago, the plate showed significant dorsal angulation on X-rays, prompting the need for surgical revision.
- This case is notable as it's the first documented instance of bending in a modern titanium volar plate, adding important data to the understanding of implant failures.
