Abstract
The reported complication rates of the distal radius fractures vary widely from 6% to 80%. Unlike damage to neural and tendinous structures, vascular complications have been extremely rare. We described an unusual case of distal radius fracture complicated with digital gangrenes because of occlusion of radial and ulnar arteries.
