摘要
Scaphoid fractures are uncommon in children, but if maltreated, they can result in nonunion. The authors report a case of left scaphoid nonunion in an 11-year-old boy. The operative management of this pseudarthrosis was performed (K-wire fixation and bone grafting of scaphoid). After a 10-month follow-up period, the left wrist regained a full range of motion with no impairment. The roentgenograms showed union of the scaphoid. Surgical management of scaphoid nonunion fractures in children offers successful fusion, with very low nonunion rate and patient's satisfaction. © 2010 Springer-Verlag.
