Why scaphoid fractures are missed. A review of 52 medical negligence cases.

Injury, 2019
BACKGROUND The "missed" scaphoid fracture is a common cause of litigation. This study investigates why a series of scaphoid fractures involved in medical negligence litigation were missed.

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

The Use of Three-Dimensional Printing for Complex Scaphoid Fractures.

Journal of Hand Surgery-American Volume, 2019
Scaphoid fractures are one of the most common fractures treated by hand surgeons. The complex anatomy and size of the scaphoid bone can make the reduction and fixation of these fractures technically challenging.

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.

Fractures of the Scaphoid

Clinical Orthopaedics and Related Research, 1980
Fractures of the scaphoid can be classified into either undisplaced, stable fractures or displaced, unstable fractures by their roentgenographic appearance. When there is greater than 1 mm of fracture offset or an instability collapse pattern (dorsal lunate rotation) on the lateral view, an unstable, displaced fracture is present.
