Biomechanical Comparison of Different Volar Screw Placements for Horizontal Oblique Scaphoid Fractures

Biomechanical Comparison of Different Volar Screw Placements for Horizontal Oblique Scaphoid Fractures

Recently, some surgeons reported that most scaphoid waist fractures were horizontal oblique and not transverse in orientation. Therefore, this cadaveric study aimed to biomechanically compare fixation strength between central and eccentric screw placements for the volar fixation of this most common...
