Figure 1.
Examples of distal screw placement. A: Intraoperative image shows that screws are placed immediate to the subchondral joint line. Postoperative image does not show any loss of reduction; B: Placing the screws at a distance from the subchondral joint line causes postoperative loss of radial length; C: Intraoperative measurement. As the diameter of the screws was known, the distance of the screws was able to be calculated.
