The scaphoid is known to be the most commonly fractured carpus. The bone is present in our wrist near the base of the thumb. It is one of the small carpal bones that form our wrists. Scaphoid fractures often occur because of trauma that includes catching yourself after falling on an outstretched hand, automobile injuries, and contact sports injuries. Sometimes, the fracture is severe enough to require surgical intervention that requires the use of trauma implants like orthopedic plates, screws, pins, and wires. In this post, we will talk about the management of scaphoid fractures along with their diagnosis.
