  • Title: Scaphoid osteochondroma mimicking carpal coalition.
    Author: Rice J, Stephens M, Colville J.
    Journal: J Hand Surg Br; 1996 Dec; 21(6):779-80. PubMed ID: 8982925.
    Abstract:
    We present the case of a 10-year-old girl who presented with a block to wrist abduction. Plain radiographs of the wrist suggested a coalition between the carpal bones. A CT scan, however, revealed the presence of an osteocartilaginous lesion on the distal pole of the scaphoid. This was resected and histology showed it to be an osteochondroma.
