摘要
Coronal fracture of the scaphoid is a rare configuration of scaphoid fracture. Only three cases have been found to be reported in English literature. In our case, a 25-year-old man sustained right wrist injury after a fall with an outstretched hand, was suspected of suffering from a scaphoid fracture as shown on the pre-operative plain radiograph. Coronal fracture of the patient's scaphoid was found intra-operatively and was fixed with two headless compression screws in dorsal-to-volar direction. Post-operative outcome was clinically good as patient was symptom-free, and a computed tomography and radiograph showed complete healing of the fracture with no sign of avascular necrosis.
