Abstract
Scaphoid nonunions remain a challenging problem for hand surgeons. While standard approaches have reasonably high success rates, the potential for devascularization of a portion of the scaphoid after fracture remains a problem. The use of pedicled vascularized bone grafts offers a potential remedy for these problems. This article discusses the options for vascularized bone grafting from distal radial sites and the techniques utilized.
