Restoration of volar tilt by using visual estimation and the \u2018lift\u2019 technique has previously been described. The aim of our study was to describe a mathematical technique for accurately restoring the volar tilt of the distal radius to acceptable anatomic values. <\/jats:p><jats:p> Methods: A retrospective review of cases performed using the trigonometry-integrated \u2018 lift\u2019 technique (TILT) was performed. This technique uses the pre-operative volar tilt angle as well as the dimensions of the implant to calculate the \u2018lift\u2019 required to restore volar tilt. Intra-operative angles were measured using a marked transparency overlay on fluoroscopic images. Pre-operative and post-operative volar tilt were measured and analysed. <\/jats:p><jats:p> Results: Twenty-seven fractures were included in the study, with 20 being classified as Arbeitsgemeinschaft f\u00fcr Osteosynthesefragen (AO) C-type. Pre-\u2018lift\u2019 volar tilt ranged from 0\u00b0 to -20\u00b0. Post-\u2018lift\u2019 volar tilt ranged from 2\u00b0 to 16\u00b0, with all but three cases ranging from 5\u00b0 to 15\u00b0. The mean volar tilt achieved was 10.2\u00b0. <\/jats:p><jats:p> Conclusions: The trigonometry-integrated \u2018lift\u2019 technique resulted in reliable intra-operative restoration of anatomic volar tilt in distal radius fractures. <\/jats:p>","DOI":"10.1142\/s0218810417500095","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2017,2,16]],"date-time":"2017-02-16T05:12:35Z","timestamp":1487221955000},"page":"53-58","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":1,"title":["Trigonometry-Integrated \u2018Lift\u2019 Technique (TILT) for Restoring Volar Tilt in Distal Radius Fractures: Description of Technique and Preliminary Results"],"prefix":"10.1142","volume":"22","author":[{"given":"Sreedharan","family":"Sechachalam","sequence":"first","affiliation":[{"name":"Hand and Microsurgery Section, Tan Tock Seng Hospital, Singapore"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Mala","family":"Satku","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Hand and Microsurgery Section, Tan Tock Seng Hospital, Singapore"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Jian Hao Kevin","family":"Wong","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Hand and Microsurgery Section, Tan Tock Seng Hospital, Singapore"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Lester Teong Jin","family":"Tan","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Orthopaedic Surgery, Tan Tock Seng Hospital, Singapore"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Fok Chuan","family":"Yong","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Hand and Microsurgery Section, Tan Tock Seng Hospital, Singapore"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]}],"member":"219","published-online":{"date-parts":[[2017,2,16]]},"reference":[{"key":"p_1","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1016\/j.jhsa.2012.06.001"},{"key":"p_2","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1142\/S0218810414500282"},{"key":"p_3","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1097\/00130911-200212000-00009"},{"key":"p_5","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.5435\/00124635-200501000-00005"},{"key":"p_6","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1148\/radiology.219.1.r01ap1311"},{"issue":"1","key":"p_7","first-page":"35","volume":"70","author":"Laino DK","year":"2012","journal-title":"Bull NYU Hosp Jt Dis."},{"key":"p_8","first-page":"17","author":"American Academy of Orthopedic Surgeons","year":"2009","journal-title":"IL."},{"issue":"2","key":"p_9","first-page":"115","volume":"49","author":"Park JW","year":"2015","journal-title":"Acta Orthop Traumatol Turc."}],"container-title":["The Journal of Hand Surgery (Asian-Pacific Volume)"],"original-title":[],"language":"en","link":[{"URL":"https:\/\/www.worldscientific.com\/doi\/pdf\/10.1142\/S0218810417500095","content-type":"unspecified","content-version":"vor","intended-application":"similarity-checking"}],"deposited":{"date-parts":[[2019,8,6]],"date-time":"2019-08-06T12:44:31Z","timestamp":1565095471000},"score":1,"resource":{"primary":{"URL":"https:\/\/www.worldscientific.com\/doi\/abs\/10.1142\/S0218810417500095"}},"subtitle":[],"short-title":[],"issued":{"date-parts":[[2017,2,16]]},"references-count":8,"journal-issue":{"issue":"01","published-online":{"date-parts":[[2017,2,16]]},"published-print":{"date-parts":[[2017,3]]}},"alternative-id":["10.1142\/S0218810417500095"],"URL":"https:\/\/doi.org\/10.1142\/s0218810417500095","relation":{},"ISSN":["2424-8355","2424-8363"],"issn-type":[{"value":"2424-8355","type":"print"},{"value":"2424-8363","type":"electronic"}],"subject":[],"published":{"date-parts":[[2017,2,16]]}}}
