The distal radial fractures account for about 15 to 20% of total fractures managed by an Orthopaedic surgeon [1]. Many studies on this topic have been done earlier with reverence to the association between various management modalities of fractures of distal radius and functional outcomes [2]. The findings of these studies have most often presented no correlation between the two factors. Distal radial fracture is common in females above 50 years of age [3]. Two of the most frequently used were the AO (Arbeitsgemeinschaft für Osteosynthesefragen) Classification which had nine chief subgroups and the Frykman classification which had 8 subgroups [4]. The prognostic and outcome worth of these classifications, to assess the consequence of a fracture of distal radius may not be precise [5], particularly concerning inter- and intra-observer level of agreement [6]. This is a descriptive study dealing with the association of the functional outcomes in AO type of fractures at the distal end of radius which are managed by various treatment modalities
