Radial Inclination Reduction





- See: Radial Radial Inclination:
- Discussion:
      - radial-ulnar translation of hand on forearm is may be used in realigning
              distal radial fragment on the radial shaft;
      - w/ ulnar translation, the 1st and 2nd extensor compartment tendons and
              their associatted retinaculum create a radial soft tissue hinge;
      - this allows Ligamentotaxis w/ ulnar translation to restore the ulnar tilt;
