Hi everyone,
I came across this term in an A&E report for someone who fell and fractured their wrist. It was in the "exploraciones complementarias" section:
"Rx de muñeca fractura impactada desviación dorsal de tercio distal del radio"
I've translated it as "dorsal deviation" but I'm wondering if there is a more appropriate way to phrase it in this context.
I'd appreciate your thoughts.
The report was issued in Spain and the target audience is in the UK.
Thanks,
Nisah

It's not that I can't be bothered waiting to grade the best response it's just that sometimes I don't know what the best response is, so I thought I'd try this. It seemed a nice idea to me to have the answers "peer-reviewed" and the best one picked collectively. It's the first time I've noticed/chosen this option and I had no intention of causing controversy, I just thought it might be a fairer way of picking a "best answer".
It's a give-and-take relationship.
