[Intraosseous ganglion of the scaphoid bone--a case report].

This is a case report of a 21-year-old male who suffered from wrist pain. X-rays showed a bone cyst of the scaphoid. Intraoperatively, an intraosseous ganglion of the scaphoid with articular communication was found. Symptoms and clinical characteristics of the intraosseous ganglion are discussed and recent literature reviewed.

Radiocarpal osteoarthritis associated with bilateral bipartite carpal scaphoid bones: a case report.

Bipartite carpal scaphoid is a rare congenital anomaly. The authors report on a 56-year-old man who presented with bilateral wrist pain without a history of trauma. X-ray films demonstrated bilateral symmetric bipartition of the scaphoid into a large distal ossicle and a smaller proximal ossicle. There was degenerative change in the articulation between the distal ossicle and the radial styloid. The joint space between the proximal ossicle and the scaphoid fossa was preserved. The absence of periscaphoid degenerative change has been suggested as a criterion for the diagnosis of congenital bipartite scaphoid. This patient fulfilled all other criteria for the diagnosis and the authors suggest that degenerative change developed due to abnormally high contact force between the distal ossicle and the radial styloid. An identical pattern of degenerative change has been observed in long-standing nonunion of the scaphoid, likely due to a similar mechanism. Radiocarpal osteoarthritis can develop in patients with congenital bipartition of the scaphoid and is similar to that observed in long-standing nonunion of the scaphoid.

[MRI in the postoperative assessment of pseudoarthrosis of the scaphoid bone treated by corticocancellous bone graft. Report of 31 cases].

Thirty one scaphoid pseudarthroses treated by corticocancellous bone graft between November 1985 and December 1988 were reviewed with a mean follow-up of 33.9 months. Clinical examination assessed pain, wrist mobility, and strength of grip. Radiological assessment evaluated consolidation of the corticocancellous graft, the presence or absence of graft resorption and the possible presence of radiocarpal osteoarthritis. A discordance between clinical and radiographic results was observed. Six patients had an excellent or good clinical result, but a poor radiological result and one patient with a poor clinical result presented an excellent radiological result. We therefore decided to use MRI to more clearly define the cause of this discordance and to verify the viability of the graft.
