Br J Hosp Med (Lond). 2024 May 30;85(5):1-8.1750-84601759-739010.12968/hmed.2023.033638815969http://hdl.handle.net/20.500.14200/4972Torus fractures are a common paediatric injury involving the distal radius. Patients typically present following a fall onto the outstretched hand, with wrist pain as their primary complaint. The principal investigation of choice is a plain radiograph of the wrist joint. These fractures should be managed with a soft-bandage and immediate discharge approach and do not require specialist follow-up. Clinicians have historically had differing views regarding optimal management of torus fractures. It is therefore important for hospital clinicians to uniformly understand the most up-to-date management of this condition. This review provides an overview of the epidemiology, anatomy, diagnosis and management, with an aim to improve outcomes.enOrthopaedicsPaediatricsTorus fractures - diagnosis and managementArticle
