[Scaphoid fractures: diagnosis and therapy].

An adequate management of scaphoid fractures requires fast and reliable diagnosis. In this, proper history taking and physical examination are essential. Routine scaphoid x-rays miss over 20% of all scaphoid fractures. Therefore, in patients with a clinically suspected scaphoid fracture that cannot be proven by scaphoid x-rays, further diagnostic investigation is indicated. Which supplemental diagnostic tool (bone scintigraphy, MRI, CT) is preferred remains unclear. A below-the-elbow cast without immobilisation of the thumb is an adequate treatment for stable fractures. Unstable fractures and all proximal pole fractures are candidates for open or percutaneous treatment. In addition to the type of fracture, patient-specific requirements are important in deciding which type of management is the most suitable.
