Scaphoid Fracture in Children

Hand Clinics, 2006
Scaphoid fractures in children are uncommon. A high index of suspicion is required in children when clinical signs and symptoms indicate a scaphoid fracture in a child. Radiographic evaluation with multiple views should be performed to assess for fracture. If necessary, advanced imaging studies such as MRI should be performed.

Scaphoid Fractures in Athletes

Orthopedic Clinics of North America, 2020
Scaphoid fractures are common injuries in athletes. Most can be treated with cast immobilization, with an expected rate of union of 90% to 95%. Cast treatment, however, has the disadvantages of longer immobilization time, joint stiffness, reduced grip strength, and longer time to return to manual work or athletics.

Scaphoid Fractures in Children

Journal of Pediatric Orthopaedics, 1986
Fracture of the carpal scaphoid before skeletal maturity represents 0.34% of all fractures in children and 0.45% of children's upper limb fractures. Seventy-seven children, with a mean age of 11 years (range 8-14 years), suffered a scaphoid fracture in Nottingham, England, between 1977 and 1984 inclusive.

Displaced Fractures of the Scaphoid

Clinical Orthopaedics and Related Research, 1988
The scaphoid is the most commonly fractured carpal bone. The displaced fracture poses a particular surgical problem. While scaphoid fractures as a group show a 90%-95% union rate, those fractures with greater than 1 mm of displacement are associated with a 55% incidence of nonunion and a 50% rate of avascular necrosis.

Acute Fractures of the Scaphoid

The Journal of Bone & Joint Surgery, 2006
Fractures of the scaphoid must be treated promptly to minimize the risk of malunion and nonunion. Although most scaphoid fractures have been reported to heal well with cast immobilization, advances in surgical techniques have greatly changed the decision-making process for treatment. It is worthwhile to review the different management options for acute

Acute Fractures of the Scaphoid

Journal of the American Academy of Orthopaedic Surgeons, 2000
Nondisplaced fractures of the scaphoid heal with cast immobilization in most cases, but operative treatment is being offered with greater frequency to active patients as an approach to reduce the period of cast immobilization. Computed tomography is more useful for evaluating displacement than standard radiography.

Scaphoid fracture epidemiology

Journal of Trauma and Acute Care Surgery, 2012
The current available literature related to scaphoid fracture epidemiology is inconsistent. The aim of this study was to describe the epidemiology of true scaphoid fractures in a defined adult population.Using a prospective database, we identified all patients who sustained a radiographically confirmed acute fracture of the scaphoid over a 1-year ...

Fracture dislocation of the scaphoid

Injury, 1997
A 41-year-old male company director was air lifted to hospital following a road traffic accident. On admission he was noted to have multiple lacerations, with scattered glass fragments, on the dorsum of his dominant right wrist. There was gross limitation of his wrist movement but no neurovascular deficit.
