    Author: Viegas SF.
    Journal: Arthroscopy; 1988; 4(4):278-81. PubMed ID: 3069100.
    Abstract:
    Osteochondritis dissecans of the carpal scaphoid has been reported only rarely in the literature. A 29-year-old, right-hand-dominant oil-field worker with symptomatic osteochondritis dissecans of the left carpal scaphoid was treated by arthroscopic debridement and drilling of the lesion. Preliminary follow-up at 9 months revealed a dramatic relief in his symptoms.
