Fracture of scaphoid are second most common fractures of wrist, and about 1/6 of these fractures proceed to nonunion. The most widely used surgical procedure of scaphoid nonunion has been Matti-Russe procedures,and Hebert screw is a recently introduced fixation device as a means of rigid internal fixation promoting union and decreasing immobilization time.
Authors have managed 15 cases of scaphoid nonunion with Mtti-Russe bone grafting technique and herbert screw, and accomplished satisfactory results: The union rate Was 96.6%, the average time to union was 17.1 weeks, and according to Maudsleys assessment criteria, we obtained 7 cases of excellnt, 6 good, and 2 fair results. Despite of its technical demand and lack of the number and study material, Matti-Russe bone grafting technique with Herbert screw fixation seems efficient and reliable method of treatment.
