AB  - Falls  on  an  outstretched  arm  are  common,  and  the  radius  is  often  the  first  to  fracture.  If  there  is  a  supinating  component  to  the  fall,  the  distal  ulna  may  also  fracture.  In  the  elderly,  distal  radius  fractures  are  usually  extra-articular  metaphyseal  fractures,  whereas  in  younger  patients,  they  are  usually  intra-articular  with  displacement  of  the  joint  surface.  There  are  four  types  of  radial  fractures,  associated  with  commonly  known  eponyms:  Colles,  Smith,  Barton,  and  Hutchinson  (chauffeur).
