Frykman classification
 | This article relies largely or entirely on a single source. (November 2022) |
Frykman classification is a system of categorizing Colles' fractures. In the Frykman classification system there are four types of fractures.[1]
Classification
Though the Frykman classification system has traditionally been used, there is little value in its use because it does not help direct treatment. The classification is as follows:[2]
| Radius Fracture | Ulna Fracture | |
|---|---|---|
| Absent | Present | |
| Extra articular | I | II |
| Intra-articular involving radiocarpal joint | III | IV |
| Intra articular involving distal radio-ulnar joint | V | VI |
| Intra articular involving both radiocarpal & distal radioulnar joints | VII | VIII |
