On displaced scaphoid fractures treated with prolonged cast immobilisation may result in temporary joint stiffness and muscle weakness in addition to a delay in return to sports or work. Fixation of scaphoid fractures with a percutaneous screw has resulted in a shorter time to union and to return to work or sports. The purpose of this study was to evaluate the results of percutaneous screw fixation scaphoid fractures with respect to time to radiographic union and to return to work.
