FYI:
Frykman Classification
Overview: One of the most widely recognized systems for distal radius fractures, including Colles fractures. It focuses on the involvement of the radiocarpal joint, ulnar styloid, and whether the fracture extends into the joint.
Categories:
Type I: Extra-articular fracture of the radius (classic Colles fracture), no ulnar styloid fracture.
Type II: Extra-articular radius fracture with ulnar styloid fracture.
Type III: Intra-articular fracture into the radiocarpal joint, no ulnar styloid fracture.
Type IV: Intra-articular fracture into the radiocarpal joint with ulnar styloid fracture.
Type V: Intra-articular fracture into the distal radioulnar joint (DRUJ), no ulnar styloid fracture.
Type VI: Intra-articular fracture into the DRUJ with ulnar styloid fracture.
Type VII: Intra-articular fracture involving both radiocarpal and DRUJ, no ulnar styloid fracture.
