COLLES FRACTURE DIFFERENTIAL DIAGNOSIS 227 After injury to the wrist one must consider in the differentialdiagnosis— A sprain of the wrist, Fracture of the shaft of one or both bones Contusion of the bones near the wrist, low down, Dislocation of the wrist backward. Separation of the lower radial epiphysis. A sprain of the wrist is rather unusual. There very oftenexists in so-called sprains a definite anatomical lesion of deformity due to the distention of the synovial sac with fluid. __ Ulna. f~y-_ Displaced styloid process (-^ of ulna.
