Abstract
Forty-one scaphoid fractures had Herbert screw fixation. There were three acutely displace fractures (Type B), nine delayed unions (Type C), and 29 non-unions (Type D). All procedures were carried out by the senior author between December 1983 and May 1987. The average time from injury to surgery was 19 months. All Type D fractures were bone-grafted.Keywords
