Non Vascular Bone grafting for Proximal Pole Non Unions

Nader Paksima, DO, MPH

Clinical Professor of Orthopedic Surgery

NYU/Hospital for Joint Diseases

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

• 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 !
