Case Presentation: 30 year old gentleman injured his distal radius (wrist fracture) while snowboarding. He had a severe fracture with separation of the lunate and scaphoid facet fragments. Intra-operative fixation required individual fragment specific plating with screws, wires, and plates. The fracture healed in a reasonable position, and the plates were taken out once healed due to some mild irritation. Once recovered he had nearly full motion and was very pleased.
