Abstract

(1) Background: Recently, surgical treatment of distal radius fractures has increased exponentially. Many locking plates' fixation systems have been developed allowing a more stable reduction and early mobilization. Sometimes, open reduction and fixation of distal radius fractures may leave a residual bone loss requiring grafting. This retrospective study reports clinical and radiologic outcomes of distal radius fractures treated with xenohybrid bone grafting in order to assess (i) the safety of the investigated bone graft; (ii) its radiological integration and biomechanical performances, and (iii) clinical outcomes of the patients; (2) Methods: We performed a retrospective study on a cohort of 19 patients. Preoperative X-ray and CT scan were performed. The mean clinical and radiographical follow-up was two years. Safety of the xenohybrid bone graft was constantly evaluated. Clinical results were assessed through the DASH score and Mayo wrist score; (3) Results: No adverse reactions, infections, and local or general complication were related to the use of xenohybrid bone graft. The radiolucency of the xenografts suggested progressive osteointegration. No evidence of bone graft resorption was detected. All the patients reached consolidation with good to excellent clinical results; and (4) Conclusions: Clinical and radiological data demonstrated that xenohybrid bone grafting promotes new bone formation and healing in osteopenic areas caused by fracture reduction.
