ABSTRACT
First described by Kapandji, the double closed "basket-like" pinning is a new and quite attractive treatment of the Colles' fracture. With or without XR TV, following closed reduction the epiphysis is fixed steady with two Kirschner wires, sliding along its lateral and its posterior aspects, entering the radius at the fracture site and transfixing the bone cortex above. Plaster cast is unnecessary, and wrist reeducation begins on the first day post-op. Technical "know-how" is specified, and seventy-two patients followed up. Present findings indicate that the complication rate is very low, excellent and good results are 83%. Rehabilitation is quicker, socio-economically gratifying. We believe that the method significantly improves the conservative treatment of Colles' fracture and decide to use it extensively from now on.
