This chapter presents a case scenario of a 39-year-old male who presents with progressive wrist pain, possibly following a wrist sprain sustained 1.5 years ago, for which he did not seek medical attention. Identification of risk factors associated with scaphoid nonunion contributes to the prevention, diagnosis, and tailored treatment in at risk ...

Arthroscopic Management of Scaphoid Nonunions
Hand Surgery, 2015The difficulty in healing scaphoid nonunions is challenged further by the dynamic, unstable nature of the fracture-fragment interface. Recently, several investigators have introduced a minimally invasive technique for scaphoid nonunion repair, which has the advantages of minimal morbidity and accurate articular reduction, resulting in less ...

Arthroscopic treatment for nonunion of the scaphoid
Handchirurgie · Mikrochirurgie · Plastische Chirurgie, 2020AbstractScaphoid nonunion has traditionally been treated by open surgery where the pseudarthrosis has been cleaned while either a structural wedged bone graft, or chips of cancellous bone has been used to fill the defect. K-wires or a screw has been used to stabilize the bone.

Scapholunate Gap with Scaphoid Nonunion
Clinical Orthopaedics and Related Research, 1987Ten of 64 patients reviewed with scaphoid nonunion were found to have scapholunate gaps (SLG). A roentgenographic study of the entire group who were symptomatic, but had no prior surgery, showed the SLG. The SLG indicated severe ligamentous injury and instability, and was always associated with the presence of Doral Intercalated Segment Instability ...

Arthroscopic Management of Scaphoid Nonunion
Hand Clinics, 2019Arthroscopic bone grafting (ABG) in difficult scaphoid delayed union and nonunion allows thorough assessment and comprehensive management for scaphoid fracture and its sequelae. It provides a favorable biological environment for bony healing and produces minimal trauma to the soft tissues, aiding in rehabilitation. With adequate training and experience,

Nonunion of fractures of the scaphoid tuberosity
The Journal of Bone and Joint Surgery. British volume, 1993Fracture of the tuberosity of the scaphoid is common and usually heals without incident because of the good blood supply. We report four cases of nonunion of this fracture. Three of them were symptomatic and two required operative treatment.

Surgical Treatment of Nonunion of the Scaphoid
Southern Medical Journal, 1975Fracture of the scaphoid is the most common injury of the carpal bones. Most scaphoid fractures heal after immobilization. When the fracture does not unite, degenerative arthritic changes and disability may occur. Twenty-four symptomatic nonunions treated surgically were reviewed.

Percutaneous Management of Scaphoid Nonunions
Techniques in Hand & Upper Extremity Surgery, 2009Scaphoid nonunions pose a formidable challenge to surgeons because of the multiple factors that may contribute to their causation. The etiology of the nonunion may be because of anatomic variations, fracture configuration, vascular problems, underlying metabolic problems, or the inadequacy of initial treatment.

The Electrical Treatment of Scaphoid Nonunion
Clinical Orthopaedics and Related Research, 1981Seventy-one percent (12 out of 17) of the previously treated nonunions united within 12 weeks by a semi-invasive technique of electrical stimulation. The electrodes are stainless steel and Teflon-coated except for the 1 cm bare tip. The power source is a 7.5 volt battery in circuit with resistors and transistors such that a constant continuous current ...
