It is important to classify the type of fracture, because some fractures are more difficult to treat than others. Intra-articular fractures, open fractures, comminuted fractures, and displaced fractures (when the broken pieces of bone do not line up straight).are more difficult to treat, for example. Sometimes, the other bone of the forearm (the ulna) is also broken. This is called a distal ulna fracture.
A growth plate fracture at the joint that can result in shorter bone length; These fracture subtypes can present in children and adults: A comminuted fracture is when the bone breaks into several pieces; A transverse fracture is when the fracture line is perpendicular to the shaft (long part) of the bone. An oblique fracture is when the break is on an angle through the bone
