Introduction Distal radius fracture is one of the most commonly seen fractures. It accounted for about 3% of total upper extremity fractures. The radiologic parameter of the distal radius is essential to treatment. Hence, it can also be utilized as a successful indicator after treatment. This study aims to evaluate the correlation between wrist radiologic parameters and patient-rated wrist evaluation. Methods This cross-sectional study was carried out from Mei 2021 to December 2021. All patients were consecutively included. The radiological parameter was obtained in all patients as follows radial height, radial inclination, ulnar variance, and volar tilt. Patient-rated wrist evaluation (PRWE) was obtained in all patients. The outcome of interest in this study was the correlation between radiographical parameters and Patient-Rated Wrist Evaluation (PRWE). Result A total 40 patients were included in this study. The mean age of the included patients was 40,88 + 16,45. Ulnar variance was statistically significant correlated with the PRWE with p=0.001, r=0.634. Meanwhile, the other radiologic parameters showed no correlation to the PRWE. Conclusion This study showed the correlation between ulnar variance and PRWE in distal radius fracture. Addressing contralateral ulnar variance and the other radiologic parameters were recommended to achieve the optimal functional wrist outcome.
