Case report reveals persistent dislocation after surgical Galeazzi fracture treatment, suggesting thorough evaluation is vital.

The aim is to highlight complications of persistent distal radioulnar joint dislocation after Galeazzi fracture treatment.
Presented two cases of persistent distal radioulnar joint dislocation following surgical treatment of Galeazzi fractures.
Patients underwent radial fixation with plate and screws and subsequent surgeries for dislocation.
Radiographic evaluations confirmed dislocation and identified complications such as radial malalignment and soft tissue issues.
Both patients achieved full recovery and pain relief after reoperation.
Restored forearm mobility was attained following the surgical interventions.
Initial surgeries were complicated by untreated ulnar styloid fractures and limitations in forearm supination.

Dinh et al. (2026) studied this question.
