Olivia, Boeddrich Anna Lena, Sander Thomas, Lustenberger Epidemiology fractures comprise CC BY Because of their low incidence, studies about carpal fractures are rare. The aim of the present study was to analyze epidemiology and treatment of fractured carpal bones. We retrospectively analyzed data of 178 patients admitted to our emergency room with carpal fractures over 6 years. More males than woman were injured. In 91%, a CT scan was performed. The most commonly affected bone was the triquetrum followed by the scaphoid. Almost all triquetral fractures were treated conservatively as opposed to perilunate dislocations that were all operated on. Half of all patients with scaphoid fractures were operated. Young men had the highest risk to sustain a carpal fracture. 2023-03-29T01:21:51Z 2023-03-29T01:21:51Z 2023 Book https://link.springer.com/article/10.1007/s00068-022-02213-5 https://dlib.phenikaa-uni.edu.vn/handle/PNK/7242 en application/pdf Springer
