The Feasibility of High-Resolution Peripheral Quantitative Computed Tomography (HR-pQCT) in Patients with Suspected Scaphoid Fractures.

Journal of clinical densitometry, 2020
INTRODUCTION Diagnosing scaphoid fractures remains challenging. High-resolution peripheral quantitative computed tomography (HR-pQCT) might be a potential imaging technique, but no data are available on its feasibility to scan the scaphoid bone in vivo.

Scaphoid Fractures below the Age of 10: Case Series and Review of the Literature

Journal of wrist surgery, 2020
Background Scaphoid fractures are relatively uncommon in children, especially below the age of 10 due to the ossification of the scaphoid bone, which starts around 4 to 6 years of age and continues until 13 to 15 years of age, where pediatric scaphoid ...

Questions regarding the evidence guiding treatment of displaced scaphoid fractures

Journal of Hand Surgery (European Volume), 2020
Scaphoid fracture usually occurs in younger people during their most productive years. Most fractures are nondisplaced and 85–90% of scaphoid fractures unite in a below-elbow plaster cast.

Systematic Review of Diagnosis of Clinically Suspected Scaphoid Fractures

Journal of wrist surgery, 2019
Background Scaphoid fracture accounts for approximately 15% of acute wrist fractures. Clinical examination and plain X-rays are commonly used to diagnose the fracture, but this approach may miss up to 16% of fractures in the absence of clear-cut lucent ...

Percutaneous Fixation of Recent Scaphoid Fracture by Herbert screw through the Volar Approach: A Clinical Trial [PDF]

International Journal of Medical Arts
Background: The scaphoid is the most frequently broken bone in the wrist, representing between 50% and 80% of all carpal fractures and about 11% of hand fractures overall. These injuries are most often seen in young, physically active individuals.
