Treatment of scaphoid non-unions by a palmar approach with vascularised bone graft harvested from the thumb
چکیده انگلیسی

Ten patients with scaphoid non-unions which had been present for longer than 2 years were treated using a vascularised bone graft harvested from the thumb and pedicled on the first dorsal metacarpal artery. Bone harvesting and grafting were performed by a single palmar approach. Concomitant cancellous bone graft was not used. Bone healing was confirmed by CT scans in nine of the ten patients. Persistence of the non-union was observed in one patient who was the oldest in this series, had the longest standing non-union and was a heavy smoker. Twelve months after surgery, nine of the ten patients had significant pain relief with an improved range of motion and grip strength.
