Gartland & Werley classification

Gartland & Werley classification is a system of categorizing Colles' fractures. In the Gartland & Werley classification system there are three types of fractures. The classification system is based on metaphysical comminution, intra-articular extension and displacement, and was first published in 1951.[1][2]

Classification
  • Type 1: Extra-articular, displaced
  • Type 2: Intra-articular, no displacement
  • Type 3: Intra-articular, displaced
gollark: Yes it does.
gollark: BTX was ahead of its time, given that it aimed to deal with the climbing power use (and thus heat) of CPUs and I think other components.
gollark: Consider bees.
gollark: Without looping or anything.
gollark: That is the best way I can think of to do that, sure.
