Abstract

1. Three cases of Colles's fracture complicated by ulnar nerve paralysis are described. 2. Observation at operation in two cases and studies in a cadaver demonstrated a close relationship of the ulnar nerve to a fracture line at the lower end of the radius when the distal fragment is displaced dorsally and radially. It is surprising that this injury has not been observed and commented on previously.
