There are many techniques to treat these fractures such as fixation and percutaneous Kirschner wire and ORIF with dorsal or volar plates. Aim: To assess the functional outcomes following fixation of a marginal distal radius fracture with two commonly used volar locking plates Methodology: The study was conducted which is retrospective in nature. Patients were divided into two groups each with one of the two designs of VLP. The initial results reported by patients were pain scores and range of movements. The final results were based on the satisfaction of patients while performing physical activities. A retrospective comparative study. This study was conducted at Peoples University of Medical __ampersandsignamp; Health Sciences Nawabshah, Pakistan from February 2019 to March 2020. Results: A total of 41 patients were included in the study. Twenty-two patients were in the Synthes LCP group and 19 in the Acumed Acu-Loc group. By observing the patients, it was concluded that Acumed Acu-Loc group patients gave better results. Conclusions: Despite various surgical techniques, tendon rupture and complexities is still an issue unresolved. This study shows that the Acumed Acu-Loc system gives better results than Synthes LCP when placed accordingly to the watershed line.&#13;
