The talus is predisposed to avascular necrosis (AVN), or bone death due to ischemia, owing to its unique structure, characteristic extraosseous arterial sources, and variable intraosseous blood supply. Both traumatic and atraumatic causes have been implicated in talar AVN. The risk of posttraumatic AVN can be predicted using the Hawkins classification system. In addition, the "Hawkins sign" can...

Background Sickle cell trait is usually an asymptomatic presentation of a patient with slightly different hemoglobin molecule makeup than normal. It is similar to a more serious disease, sickle cell disease, in which a person's hemoglobin is mutated in such a way that causes their red blood cells to easily change shape in certain environmental and internal states; this causes red blood cells to...

Avascular necrosis (AVN) of the capitate bone is very rare. It was first reported by Jonsson in 1942 and about 30 additional cases have been reported since. Most of the cases were associated with serious trauma, but in some cases, severe trauma has not played a major etiologic role. In our case, we propose that the cause of the avascular necrosis of the capitate bone was repetitive minor trauma...
