Brief Summary

Review the sponsor-provided synopsis that highlights what the study is about and why it is being conducted.

The purpose of this study is to compare two different fixationmethods for fractures of the wrist(distal radius fractures). We are comparing an external fixation (Hoffmann-II-non-bridging) vs. an internal fixation(Micronail). Primary endpoint is patient satisfaction as scored by the DASH-questionnaire.Secondary followup is X-rays, strength, PRWE-questionnaire.
