Abstract:
Scaphoid non-union develops in 10% of scaphoid fractures. There is sparse literature on fixation methods other than screws. We compared union rates following fixation of scaphoid non-union using screw fixation and a novel method of plate fixation. Retrospective study. Union rates were assessed at 3 months post-operatively by a musculoskeletal radiologist. 15 patients underwent screw fixation and 15 underwent plate fixation. 86% union rate with screw fixation and 72% plate fixation united. There was no significant difference. Screw fixation and plate fixation in our institution both provide union rates that are consistent with the literature.

Self-Locking Screw
A square-threaded screw jack carrying a load is considered self-locking if the screw retains its position even after the moment applied to it is removed.

Copy number variations or CNVs are the structural variations that cover more than 1kb of DNA sequence. The single nucleotide polymorphism (SNP), on the other hand, is a single nucleotide change or a point mutation that is found in more than 1%...
