A bone graft, taken from the medial part of the radial epiphysis can be pedicled on the radial branch of the volar carpal arch, freed back to its origin. The graft can be transferred into the proximal row of the carpus to fill up a loss of bony substance or to provide vascularised bone. This permits the treatment of chronic pseud-arthrosis of the scaphoid where a Matti-Russe operation has failed. In the first three cases operated upon, favourable results have been obtained.

This systematic review assesses the quality and outcomes of published articles concerning bone graft surgery for scaphoid fracture non-union. Searches of the CENTRAL, MEDLINE, EMBASE, CINAHL and AMED databases captured 2710 articles. Each article was screened and 144 met our inclusion criteria. Data regarding source, study design, population, intervention, comparator and outcomes were extracted. There were 5464 scaphoid non-union outcomes within the 144 studies. Mean reported union rates for vascularized and non-vascularized bone graft were 84% and 80%, respectively. Avascular necrosis was diagnosed in several ways and, when present, the vascularized bone graft union rate was 74% compared with 62% with non-vascularized bone graft. Reported union rates vary considerably. These differences may be due to patient factors, fracture factors, treatment factors or study design failures or bias. We recommend that future researchers take into account the deficiencies of previous studies and use the suggested minimum data set in future studies. Level of evidence: II

The scaphoid is the most common fractured bone in the wrist. Despite adequate non-surgical treatment, around 10% to 15% of these fractures will not heal. Untreated scaphoid non-union can cause a scaphoid non-union advance collapse (SNAC), this is a progressive deformity and can cause degenerative changes in the wrist. Surgery is focused on achieving consolidation, pain reduction and a good position of the scaphoid while preventing osteoarthritis in the long-term. Surgery consists of reduction and fixation of the scaphoid with a non-vascularized or vascularized bone graft. An overview of the most used vascularized and non-vascularized bone grafts and their indications are presented.

Objectives: To carry out an epidemiological study and to assess the evolutionary profile of patients with scaphoid non-union treated by anterior non-vascularized corticocancellous bone graft. Introduction: The non-union is a serious complication of carpal scaphoid fractures. Untreated, it leads to instability and osteoarthritis of the carp. The most used technique is that of Matti-Russe employing a corticocancellous graft. Materials and methods: We report in this retrospective study the experience of the department of Orthopaedic Surgery & Traumatology II, Mohamed V Military Hospital, Rabat, in the treatment of non-unions of the carpal scaphoid by anterior non-vascularized corticocancellous graft in nine cases collected between January 2012 and March 2016. We identified six cases of stage IIA and three cases of stage IIB. All our patients were operated by the Matti-Russian technique followed by an immobilization by plaster cast cuff on three months. Results: All our patients achieved a union within an average of three months. The Mayo Wrist score was excellent in 66.6% of cases. Our results were very satisfying in 90% of cases, satisfying in 10%. Conclusion: The treatment of non-unions of the carpal scaphoid without necrosis or osteoarthritis, using anterior non-vascularized bone graft remains the most widely used technique. The presence of initial instability is a factor of poor prognosis, its correction reduces the risk of arthritis.
