Abstract/OtherAbstract:
|
The incidence and some epidemiological features of fractures of the distal forearm in the Finnish population are described. An annual incidence of 36.5 per 10 000 was calculated for the population over 15 years of age. The incidence seems to vary within wide limits according to the season, and the patient's age and sex. The highest numbers were noted in women of 60-70 years of age. However, these marked differences in incidence are less evident in cases treated as in-patients. The figures do not differ much from those for Oslo, but are higher than those for Sweden or Great Britain. |
