Salvage of post surgical scaphoid non-union
Introduction Acceptable results of scaphoid fracture have been reported associated with development of surgical procedures and improvement of fixation screws. However, some scaphoid fractures result in nonunion after surgery. Nonunion of scaphoid fracture causes osteoarthritis of the wrist. Therefore, it is important to achieve union. In the present study, we retrospectively analyzed the salvag...

PURPOSE To compare outcomes of 3 fixation modalities for scaphoid non-union. METHODS 27 men and 6 women aged 20 to 48 (mean, 28) years with non-union of the scaphoid involving the proximal pole (n=13), waist (n=12), and distal pole (n=8) were randomised to undergo the Herbert screw fixation (n=11), the Matti Russe bone grafting (n=9), or the Kohlman modification of vascularised muscle pedicle...
متن کاملPercutaneous screw fixation without bone grafting of scaphoid non-union.
BACKGROUND Delays in diagnosis and inadequate treatment of acute scaphoid fractures can lead to non-unions, presenting surgeons with unique challenges regarding optimal management. OBJECTIVES To evaluate the clinical and radiographic outcome of scaphoid non-unions treated with percutaneous screw fixation. METHODS The study group comprised 12 patients with scaphoid non-unions of an average d...
متن کاملTrans-Scaphoid Perilunate Fracture-Dislocation and Isolated Perilunate Dislocations; Surgical Versus Non Surgical Treatment
Background: Trans-scaphoid perilunate fracture-dislocation and perilunate dislocations are among uncommon injuries, most commonly seen in young patients due to high energy trauma. The treatment can be achieved either surgically by open reduc tion and internal fixation or closed reduction and casting. Methods: To compare surgical versus non-operative results of treatment of trans-scaphoid pe...
متن کاملThe treatment of delayed union and non-union of the carpal scaphoid by screw fixation.
A simple technique for screw fixation of the carpal scaphoid in cases of delayed union and non-union is described. The results obtained in 32 patients treated by this method are reported. The average follow-up was three years ranging from 10 months to 12 years. Union was obtained in 28 patients. The causes of failure to unite are discussed and the advantages of the reported method over other te...
