The scaphoid is vitally important for proper mechanics of wrist function. Its unique
morphology from its boat-like shape to its retrograde blood supply can present with …

PURPOSE: The interpretation of scaphoid anatomy and kinematics is confusing and
controversial. This results from a lack of consensus on the anatomy of the ligaments …

Purpose The purpose of this study was to investigate the intraosseous vascular anatomy of
the scaphoid using recent advances in micro–computed tomography (micro-CT) imaging …

Purpose To evaluate union and complication rates associated with the use of 2 headless
compression screws and bone grafting for the treatment of scaphoid nonunions. Methods A …

Introduction The scaphoid is the most commonly fractured carpal bone, accounting for
between 60% and 70% of all carpal fractures. Approximately 80% of the surface of the …

Purpose Currently, there is no consensus on the optimal treatment for scaphoid nonunion
with avascular necrosis (AVN). Various techniques, often involving vascularized …

Wrist arthroscopy has steadily grown from a mostly diagnostic tool to a valuable adjunctive
procedure in the treatment of myriad wrist disorders. The number of conditions that are …

PURPOSE: The development of small cannulated screws permitted minimally invasive
percutaneous fixation of acute scaphoid fractures. There are known mechanical advantages …

Purpose Treatment of scaphoid nonunion with a segmental defect presents a challenging
clinical problem. Various techniques have been proposed, often involving structural grafting …

Background A detailed understanding of scaphoid anatomy helps anatomic fracture
reduction, and optimal screw position. Therefore, we analysed (1) the size and shape …
