Asking for tips and tricks regarding distal Radius fracture open Reduction and volar Plate?

I am asking for your intra operative tricks and tipps to reach an anatomical reposition result in open reduction and internal plating regarding distal radius fracture AO: 2R3C2. To be noted with such a fracture where the fracture is very unstable i usually use 2 or 3 K-Wires (1.8 or 2mm) dorsaly and radially in the fraktur to reduce the fracture, but i dont reach an anatomical result ( acceptable result can be reached but not 100%) meaning a 5° palmar inclination and 10-15° radial inclination). Another method i use is reduction over the plate when the bone quality is good. I'm asking for your Eperties? Tips and tricks?

Future of Trauma

Hello yall,

I am a high school senior interested in trauma more specifically emergency medicine. I like emergency medicine for the fast paced nature and the variety of cases. However I have heard people saying to run away from emergency medicine and was wondering why?

Thanks yall!
