The investigators aim to evaluate the effect of a preoperative 3D printed Model (3PAS) of distal intraarticular radius fractures on quality of fracture reduction. Surgical procedure is equal in the 3PAS and in the conventional group. To evaluate the quality of fracture reduction each patient receives a postoperative CAT-scan.
