In medical terms, Galeazzi fracture is the condition where a distal third of the radius is broken, and along with this, dislocation of the distal radioulnar joint may also be noticed. In simpler terms, this is the type of fracture where the partial or complete break is seen in the radius between the middle of the radius and the wrist. It is also accompanied by the dislocation of the ulna at the wrist.
