Non Vascular Bone grafting for Proximal Pole Non Unions

Good Carpentry Is Better than Good Biology !
Risk of osteonecrosis goes up with proximal fractures

How proximal ?
Blood Supply
• Main blood supply: dorsal branch of the radial artery– Enters through dorsal ridge – ~80% of blood supply– Supplies proximal portion by retrograde blood flow
• Secondary blood supply: Superficial palmar branch of radial artery – 20‐30% of the scaphoids blood supply– Supplies distal portion
• Proximal pole of the scaphoid relies entirely on the intramedullary blood flow
•
Does Osteonecrosis mean it cannot heal?
Does osteonecrosis mean you MUST do a vascularized bone Flap?

ASSH 2017
Scott Wolfe et al, paper 59 36 scaphoid non‐unions23 evaluated for osteonecrosis ( proximal pole)50% histologic evidence of avascularity91% of these and 94% over all healed. Non vascular bone graft and screw fixation
Is time a factor?
• Chronic Scaphoid Nonunion of 28‐Year Duration Treated with Nonvascularized Iliac Crest Bone Graft
• John T. Capo, MD,1 Ben Shamian, MD,1 and Steve Rivero, BS1
Merrell et al JHS 2002
• Meta‐analysis 2002
• > 1100 articles
• 88% union with vascular grafts
• Better than non vascular

Chang et al 2006 JHS
• 50 scaphoid non union • Treated with 1,2 ICSRA flap• 34 healed ( 68%)• Difficult fixation, graft extrusion and loss
Proximal pole non‐union Why go non‐vascular?
• Vascular rates of healing not as good as initially reported
• Difficult to do good carpentry
• Can excise small fragments, if its big enough to bone graft , bone graft. If not excise!
• Good carpentry is better than good biology !
Options
• Fixation without bone graft
• Fixation with non‐vascular bone graft
• Bone graft without hardware
• Osteochondral graft
• BMP
• Excision of the Proximal fragment
