| Core Tip |
This paper aims to summarize the modern radiographic methodologies available to clinicians to assess the vascularity of scaphoid nonunions, as it crucial in decision-making for future treatment plans. For example, a scaphoid nonunion with preserved vascularity at the proximal pole may be amenable to simple bone grafting and open reduction internal fixation. In cases with compromised perfusion, significantly more extensive surgical intervention involving vascularized bone transfer may be required. Given the drastic differences in treatment algorithms, review papers such as this are needed to better educate the medical community to improve treatment of this complex orthopedic disease process. |
