The Ilizarov device was used for extrafocal osteosynthesis in complex fractures of the distal end of radius. With the aid of the device the bone fragments can be joined and kept in a correct position till a callus is formed. The mean time of fixation in the apparatus is equal to 21 days. In 114 patients 117 operations were performed. Good remote results were obtained in 73 of 99 patients (73,7%), satisfactory results in 25 (25,3%).
