1 A widely displaced fracture of the distal radius
A widely displaced fracture of the distal radius. You might initially think that the wrist is dislocated, but it is not. The distal radius fragment and the carpal bones are articulating normally, but the hand, wrist, and distal radius fracture fragment are all displaced from the shaft of the radius (Licensed from Shutterstock).
