Colles' fracture is a common distal radius injury, often managed with closed reduction and Plaster of Paris (POP) casting. However, loss of alignment may occur with casting alone. Percutaneous K-wire fixation may improve fracture stability. This study aims to compare the functional outcomes of closed reduction with POP cast application versus closed reduction with K-wire fixation followed by POP cast application in the management of Colles' fractures.

Garland and werely score
The Gartland and Werley scoring system (range 0-52) evaluates functional outcomes after distal radius fracture. Lower scores indicate better outcomes
